The first step in solving this problem arithmetically is to assign variables to represent the unknown quantities. Let's assign "A" to represent the cost of an adult ticket, and "C" to represent the cost of a child ticket.

To solve this problem arithmetically, the first step would be to assign variables. Let's assign "A" to represent the cost of an adult ticket, and "C" to represent the cost of a child ticket.

Now, let's set up equations using the information given.

We know that three adult tickets and three child tickets were purchased for a total of $75. This can be expressed as:

3A + 3C = 75

We also know that the cost of each child ticket is $3 less than the cost of an adult ticket. So, the equation for this relationship can be written as:

C = A - 3

Now, we have a system of two equations that we can solve to find the values of A and C.

No, dividing 75 by 6, adding 3 to 75, and dividing 75 by 3 are not the correct first steps in solving this problem arithmetically.

As mentioned earlier, the correct first step is to assign variables to represent the unknown quantities. Let's assign "A" to represent the cost of an adult ticket, and "C" to represent the cost of a child ticket.

Apologies for the confusion. Based on the options you provided, the first step to solving the problem arithmetically would be to divide 75 by 6. This would determine the average cost per ticket (adult or child) if they were all the same price.
