You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Ok so to buy 40 tickets in packets of 5 means youe need 8 packets. \"8%2A5=40\"
\n" ); document.write( "So 8 packets of 5 tickets costs \"8%2A5.75=46\". So 40 tickets in packets costs $46
\n" ); document.write( "Now for single tickets \"40%2A1.50=60\". So buying 40 single tickets costs $60
\n" ); document.write( "The differance is the ammount he saves \"60-46=14\". So he saves $14
\n" ); document.write( "Which is answer C
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
