They each buy tickets and $16.50 for parking.
First you have to figure out how much parking was for all three families together:
$5.50 • 3 (families) = $16.50
Then take the total number spent and subtract the total amount spent on parking by all three families:
$196.50 - $16.50 = $180.00
$180 is the total amount all three families spent on tickets. Now divide $180 evenly into three because they all bought the same amount of tickets, which will obviously equal the same amount of money:
$180.00 ÷ 3 = $60.00
Each family individually spent $60 on tickets only.
Now divide $15 into $60 because then you will know how many $15 tickets can be bought with $60:
$60 ÷ $15 = 4
This means that each family bought 4 tickets.
Can you mark me as brainliest? Thank you! :)
