Question

Heather's mom says that they would save more than $100 if they buy 4 tickets for their family on opening weekend. Do you agree or disagree with Heather's mom? Use numbers and words to support your answer. If her statement is incorrect, explain the correct way to solve it.

Answer 1

Answer:

The first part of the question is missing, so I looked for similar questions:

Heather and her family are going to the grand opening of an amusement park. There is a special price on tickets this weekend. Tickets cost 56$ each. This is 70% of a regular price ticket.

Part A- What is the cost of a regular price ticket?

Part B- Heather's mom says they would save more than 100$ this opening weekend. Do you agree or disagree with Heather's mom?

A) the price of a regular ticket is $56/70% = $80 per ticket

B) Heather's family is saving ($80 - $56) x 4 tickets = $24 x 4 = $96

Her family is almost saving $100, but not more than $100.
