Lara is in charge of ticket sales for the school play. A student ticket costs $4.50 and an adult ticket costs $8.50. If every adult brings at least one student with him or her, and the school auditorium holds 658 ple, what is the maximum amount of money Lara can collect for one night? Please provide equation and explanation IF YOU WANT
Alright so if you divided 658 by two you get 329 (which would be the maximum amount of adults with students). Multiply $8.50 by 329 and do the same with $4.50. Add the two totals together to get the amount of money Lara would make.
