Question

Kiara and Mia went to a county fair. They each paid the same admission fee, but they went on a different number of rides. Each ride costs the same. The total amount they each spent is shown in the table.

Person: Kiara | Mia
Number of Rides: 8 | 11
Total Amount: 17.50 | 21.25

How much money, in dollars, did each girl pay for admission to the fair?

Answer 1

let's take admission fee= z

8z+11z=17.50+21.25

19z=38.75

z=38.25/19

z=2.4 (aprox)

Or

In case of Kiara 17.50 amount paid in 8 rides.

so 1 ride=17.50/8

=2.1875

same In case of mia

1ride=21.25/11

=1.9318.

but, they are not match so there is problem in your Questions.
