Answers
Ms. Sue
I answered your last couple of questions. Now it's your turn. How do you think you can solve this problem?
Natoutou
I think you do 35t=5 and then the answer will be 7 is that correct?
Ms. Sue
No. Seven tickets a day doesn't make any sense.
5t = 250 - 35
5t = 250 - 35
Natoutou
Is the answer 43?
Ms. Sue
Yes. 43 tickets were sold each day.
