Answer:

24 tickets = maximum

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = each raffle ticket Mr. Billup can buy

Since he wants to leave with $40, he can spend $60.

2.50x = 60

x = 24

Therefore, 24 is the maximum number of raffle tickets he can buy because if he goes over that limit, he doesn’t leave with $40.
