The Zearn Fair charges $1.75 for entrance and $1.05 for each ride. Mr. Sawicki brings $20 with him to the fair. What is the greatest number of rides Mr. Sawicki can go on if he uses $2.50 for food? How much money can Mr. Sawicki spend in total

Step-by-step explanation:

So

Total money = 20

Entrance fee = 1.75

Food = 2.50

Ride = 1.05

Amount spend = 1.75 + 2.05 = 3.8

Left for rides = 20 - 3.8 = 16.2

So rides = 16.2 ÷ 1.05 = 15

I think atleast 15 rides

step-by-step explanation:

the multiplicative inverse of a fraction a/b is b/a. for the multiplicative inverse of a real number, divide 1 by the number. for example, the reciprocal of 5 is one fifth 1/5 or 0.2, and the reciprocal of 0.25 is 1 divided by 0.25, or 4.
