FAMILY DISCOUNT CARD

- 45% off all adults tickets

- Children save 2/5 off of full price tickets

a) How much will it cost to buy 2 adult tickets and children’s tickets?

(a)

Adults: 2 × £10 = £20

(45 ÷ 100) x £20 = £9

£20 - £9 = £11

Children: 3 × £6 = £18

2 /5 of £18 = £7.20

£18 - £7.20 = £10.80

Total: £11 + £10.80 = £21.80

b) The cost of a family discount card is $40 per year. How many times in the same year would 2 adults and 3 children need to go before you start to savemoney on the cost of the card?

(b) Cost without discount = £20 + £18 = £38b)

1 trip

1 × £38 = £38

2 × £38 = £76

3 × £ 38 = £114

With card

£40 + (1 × £21.80) = £61.80

2 trips 2 × £38 = £76 £40 + (2 × £21.80) = £83.60
