Subtract 6 from 75.
To solve the problem arithmetically, the first step would be to set up the equations based on the information provided. The cost of one adult ticket can be denoted as \( a \), and the cost of one child ticket as \( c \). According to the problem:
- The cost of a child ticket is $3 less than the cost of an adult ticket: \( c = a - 3 \).
- The total cost of three adult tickets and three child tickets is $75: \( 3a + 3c = 75 \).
You can substitute \( c = a - 3 \) into the second equation to find the costs.
However, since you are looking for the first step from the given options, the response would be to Divide 75 by 6. This can be seen as a quick way to estimate the average cost per ticket, which gives a starting point for further calculations.
