Divide the total attendance by 175.
first day, number of freebies = 6742/175 = appr 38.5
which means the 39th free person has not yet arrived
so 38 free passes
2nd day, number of freebies = 5487/175 = appr 31.3
so 31 free passe

total = 38+31 = 69
I dunno 21
x= Saturday
y= Sunday

The process is x+y (6,742+5,487)÷175.
x= Saturday
y= Sunday

The process is x+y (6,742+5,487)÷175. If you do that, you will get 69.88 but I put 69.
