Aspen Barry · Answer 1

The answer would be $6.50.

60 divided by 4 is 15

60 plus 37.5 is 97.5

97.5 divided by 15 is 6.5

So each ticket would be $6.50 at regular price

Karma Lopez · Answer 2

Full price is 60+37.50=97.50$ is x% price

60% is 100%

so x=97.50*100/60=162.5%

th real cost of tickets would be

4*1.62=6.48$

Answer: the regular price was 6.48$ per tichet
