the drama club is planning on charging $6 per person for their latest play. Their props cost them $85. How many tickets will they need to sell to make $100?

The drama club needs to sell 17 tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Ticket charge per person = $6

Cost of props = $85

Expected revenue = $100

To make $100 from the sale, the club needs to sell 16.67 tickets ($100/$6), which is equivalent to 17 tickets.

b) In other words, the drama club, after selling about 17 tickets at $6 per person, will be able to make appropriately $100 or precisely $102 (17 * $6).  This will also cover the cost of the props at $85 and make a little profit of $17.

answer set (b) 0.5, 3/4 80% is in order from least to greatest.  

step-by-step explanation:

in order to compare rational numbers to each other, it is much easier if they are in the same form.   typically, the best form in which to evaluate rational numbers is in decimals.   in order to convert a percent to a decimal, you would divide the given percentage by 100.   you can also accomplish the conversion by moving the decimal point over two places to the left.   for example, the decimal value of 80% is 80/100, or 0.8.   in order to convert a fraction to a decimal, you need to divide the numerator by the denominator.   for example, 3/4 is 0.75.   so, for choice (b) 0.5 3/4 (0.75), 80% (0.8) is the only choice in which the numbers are in order from least to greatest.
