Matt bought 85 tickets to spend on games and rides at an amusement park games cost 3 tickets each and rides cost 8 tickets each Matt has already used 39 tickets if he uses the remaining ticket on rides how many times can Matt go on rides

1 answer

Matt has 46 tickets left after using 39 tickets on games (85 - 39 = <<46=46>>46)
Each ride costs 8 tickets, so Matt can go on rides 46 / 8 = <<46/8=5.75>>5.75 times.
However, Matt cannot go on a ride a fraction of a time, so he can go on rides 5 times. Answer: \boxed{5}.
