So it's 4 tickets per ride, right? So if you do 2 rides, then it's 8 tickets, 3 rides and it's 12 tickets. So you see how it's 4 times the number of rides tells you the total number of rides? 

Now the only problem is how many total rides did he go on? Since they all cost the same amount, you can just add up all the total number of rides, 2+3 and multiply that by the number of tickets per ride.
