Answer 1

ANSWER:

$6

ExPLANATION:

Step 1:

36.75 × 4 = 147

Step 2:

51 × 3 = 153

Step 3:

153 - 147 = 6

Answer 2

The group of 12 students will save $6 by visiting the science center instead of the Zoo.

Science center fee :

• 3 tickets = $36.75

• Total cost of visiting Science center = (12/3) × 36.75 = $147

Zoo Fee :

• 4 tickets = $51

• Total cost of visiting Zoo = (12/4) × 51 = $153

The difference in the total amount spent :

• Total cost of Zoo - Total cost of Science center

• $153 - $147 = $6

Therefore, the group will save $6 by visiting the science center.
