Oksana and her three friends are heading to a concert. They paid $540 in total for tickets. This included insurance for $15 for each person. How much was the cost of one ticket to the concert?(1 point) The cost for the one ticket to the concert was $blank.

Answer 1

To find the cost of one ticket to the concert, we first need to determine how much they paid in total for the tickets alone, excluding the insurance.

1. Calculate the total insurance cost for the four people:

   • There are 4 people (Oksana and her 3 friends).
   • Each person paid $15 for insurance.

   Total insurance cost = 4 people × $15/person = $60.

2. Subtract the total insurance cost from the total amount paid for tickets:

   • Total amount paid for tickets = $540.
   • Total insurance cost = $60.

   Total cost of tickets = $540 - $60 = $480.

3. Now, divide the total cost of the tickets by the number of people to find the cost of one ticket:

   • Total cost of tickets = $480.
   • There are 4 people.

   Cost of one ticket = $480 ÷ 4 = $120.

Therefore, the cost for one ticket to the concert was $120.
