Question

jonathan decides to go to an arcade to play some games. he sets a limit of $35 that he will spend on his fun. it costs $10 to get into this arcade (which includes a snack and drink), and each game ticket is $0.75. how many game tickets can jonathan buy without exceeding his spending limit? (he cant buy a \partial\ ticket.)
18 game tickets
33 game tickets
34 game tickets
46 game tickets

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate the remaining money for game tickets

Subtract the entrance fee from the total budget.
$35 - 10=25$

Step2: Calculate the number of game tickets

Divide the remaining money by the price of each game ticket.
$n=\frac{25}{0.75}=\frac{25\times4}{0.75\times4}=\frac{100}{3}\approx33.33$

Since he can't buy a partial ticket, we take the floor value of the result.

Answer:

33 game tickets
