Further explanation

Given:

Tickets to the baseball game are

  • $20 for an adult, and
  • $15 for a student.

A school buys tickets for:

  • 45 adults, and
  • 600 students.

Question:

How much money will the school spend for the tickets?

The Process:

We will solve the problem of multiplication and addition operations.

  • Because the ticket price for an adult is $20 and the school buys tickets for 45 adults, then the school will spend [tex]\boxed{ \ 45 \times \$ 20 = \$ 900 \ }[/tex] for the adult tickets.

[tex]\boxed{ \ 1 \ adult = \$ 20 \ } \rightarrow \boxed{\boxed{ \ 45 \ adults = \$ 900 \ }}[/tex]

  • Because the ticket price for an student is $15 and the school buys tickets for 600 students, then the school will spend [tex]\boxed{ \ 60 \times \$ 15 = \$ 9,000 \ }[/tex] for the student tickets.

[tex]\boxed{ \ 1 \ student = \$ 15 \ } \rightarrow \boxed{\boxed{ \ 600 \ students = \$ 9,000 \ }}[/tex]

Therefore, the money that schools will spend to buy tickets is [tex]\boxed{\boxed{ \ \$ 900 + \$ 9,000 = \$ 9,900 \ }}[/tex]
