Question

A jazz band wants to sell $42,000 worth of tickets. If each ticket costs $6, how many tickets will the band have to sell to meet its goal?

Answer 1

To find the number of tickets the band needs to sell, divide the total sales goal by the price per ticket: $42,000 / $6 = <<42000/6=7000>>7000 tickets. Answer: \boxed{7000}.
