Answer 1

To find out how many tickets Joseph can buy, we need to subtract the cost of the hat from his total money.

$34.25 - $12.50 = $<<34.25-12.50=21.75>>21.75

Now we can divide the remaining money by the cost of one ticket to find how many tickets he can buy.

$21.75 ÷ $7.25 = <<21.75/7.25=3>>3

Therefore, Joseph can buy 3 tickets.
