First, let's subtract the cost of the hat from Joseph's total amount of money to determine how much he has left for tickets.
Joseph's total money: $34.25
Cost of the hat: $12.50
Money left after buying the hat: $34.25 - $12.50 = $21.75
Now, we need to determine how many tickets Joseph can buy with $21.75. Each ticket costs $7.25.
To find out how many tickets he can buy, we divide the remaining money by the cost of one ticket:
Number of tickets = Money left / Cost per ticket
Number of tickets = $21.75 / $7.25
Number of tickets = 3
Joseph can buy 3 tickets with the money he has left after purchasing the hat.
Joseph wants to buy tickets for the baseball game and a team hat to wear to the game. He has $34.25. If the hat costs $12.50 and tickets cost $7.25 each, how many tickets can he buy?(
