Question

Roger attends a local carnival, he spends $8.75 on food and $1.25 for each ride, he uses $15.00 all together.
A.Write an equation to represent this situation
B.How many rides did Rogar ride?

Answer 1

A)
We know that the total amount of money is $15: \[t=15\]
We also know that he spent $8.75 on food: \[f=8.75\] and $1.25 per ride: \[r=1.25n\]

So the total must be \[15=8.75+1.25n\]

B)
Solve for n
\[15=8.75+1.25n\] \[6.25=1.25n\]\[n=5\] He rode 5 rides.

Answer 2
