A family of 7 bought tickets to the circus. Each family member also bought a souvenir that cost $6. The total amount they spent was $147. How much did one ticket cost ?
Everyone bought a $6 souvenir so 6x7= $42 Then subtract that from $147. 147-42=105. They spent $105 on 7 tickets so then divide 105 by 7. 105/7=15. Each ticket costed $15
