Question

Dan sold 40 concert ticket in 5 days. Each day he sold 3 tickets More than the previous day. What is the number of ticket he sold on the third day?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of tickets sold by Dan on 1st day be x.

Tickets sold on 2nd day be x+3

Tickets sold on 3rd day be x+ 6

Tickets sold on 4th day be x+ 9

Tickets sold on 5th day be x+ 12

Since total tickets sold by DAN is 40

Therefore;

> x + (x + 3) + (x + 6) + (x + 9) + (x + 12) = 40

> 5x + 30 = 40

> 5x = 10

> x= 2

Therefore the number of tickets sold by Dan on 3rd day are 8.

Answer 2

Answer:

40 divided by 5 = 8 which is for one day

so day 1 = 8

day 2 = 8 + 3 = 11

day 3 = 11 + 3 = 14

so the tickets sold on third day is 14
