Connor went to then country fair with $22.50 in his pocket. he bought a hot dog for $3.75 and then wanted to spend the rest of his money on ride tickets which cost $1.25 each. write an inequality to represent the total spent where r is the number of tickets purchased

Total money with Connor = $22.50

He bought a hotdog for = $ 3.75

Money left now = 22.50-3.75=$ 18.75

No with this $18.75 Connor will buy tickets costing $1.25 each

So, total tickets he can buy are =

For establishing inequality :

Let the number of tickets purchased be = r

Inequality becomes

where r = 15

25% is the answer
