A person can pay $25 for a membership to the science museum and then got to the museum for just $1 per visit. What is the maximum number of visits a member of the science museum can make for a total cost of $48 ?

An easy way to solve this is to make an equation.

Let's call the number of times we can visit "x".

So, we pay $6 off the bat, and then pay $1 per visit after.

6+1x

That's the cost associated with visiting "x" number of times, now, we need to know how many times we can visit for 18, so we equate the expression to 18.

6+x=18

x=12

We can visit 12 times

in problems involving proportions, we can use cross products to test whether two ratios are equal and form a proportion. to find the cross products of a proportion, we multiply the outer terms, called the extremes, and the middle terms, called the means.
