An annual pass covering entrance fees to more than 2000 national parks cost $80. If the total income from the annual passes is $12,800 in one month. Write the equation and solve it.

For my equation I put
12800p=80

If you want to know how many people bought this pass, your equation would be

80p = 12,800
Answered by Ms. Sue
Do you see why your equation can't be right? What is the answer when you divide 80 by 12,800?
