Answer:
19
Step-by-step explanation:
To write an equation for the first situation, you need to determine which factors can be changed. The bus will not change since you can have multiple people in one. The ticket to the museum is per person. This will change depending on how many people there are.
450 + 15.75x
For the second equation, you need to find how many people can go for it the cost to be equal to $40 per person. Set the equation equal to $40 per person and solve.
450 + 15.75x = 40x
450 = 24.25x
x = 18.56
Round up to 19 since you can't 0.56 of a person.

Answer: 5/48</h3>
============================================
Work Shown:
We'll divide the total 5/8 evenly among the 6 cousins.
(5/8) ÷ 6 = (5/8) ÷ (6/1)
(5/8) ÷ 6 = (5/8) * (1/6)
(5/8) ÷ 6 = (5*1)/(8*6)
(5/8) ÷ 6 = 5/48
Each cousin gets 5/48 of the aunt's assets.
So for instance, if the aunt had $48,000 in assets, then each cousin gets (5/48)*(48,000) = 5000 dollars.
------------------
An alternative approach:
Draw 6 rectangles side by side that represent the 6 cousins. Then divide each rectangle into 8 pieces, with 5 pieces shaded. The yellow pieces represent the amount given to the cousins. For any given rectangle, 5/8 of it is shaded yellow. Refer to the diagram below.
Overall we have 6*8 = 48 pieces.
The first cousin gets 5 yellow pieces out of 48 total. The same applies to the other five cousins. So this is a visual way to arrive at the answer 5/48.
