Answer:
23 child tickets were sold
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the information given, we can set up an equation to solve for the number of child tickets sold. Since there were three times as many adult tickets as child tickets sold, we can assign the variable 'x' to represent the number of child tickets and '3x' to represent the number of adult tickets. Since we know the cost of each ticket, as well as the total sales, we can set up the following equation:
5.20x + 9.70(3x) = 788.90
Simplify 5.20x + 29.1x = 788.90
Combine like terms: 34.3x = 788.90
Divide both sides by 34.3: x = 23 child tickets
The answer is 408. One way to solve is to do 8*50 and then do 8*1 and add the products together.
Ratio of children, adults and pensioners is 1 : 2 : 8/3 = 3 : 6 : 8.
Let, 3x is number of children.
So, 6x is number of adults and 8x is number of pensioners.
Now,
3x + 6x + 8x = 85
17x = 85
x = 5
Therefore, number of pensioners are 8×5 = 40.
Hence, this is the required solution.
Since we are rounding to the nearest hundreds place in 222,977 the hundreds would be the 9. The seven behind it would make the number round up since the rule is 0-5 round down 6-9 round up. you round the 9 up to 10 so you add 1 to the next number since you cant have 222,1000. thats wrong . the answer is
223,000
