Question: 1 / 400

What is the total cost for tickets for six freshmen at $11.99 each and two juniors at $9.99 each?

$91.92

To find the total cost for the tickets for six freshmen and two juniors, we first calculate the total cost for each group of students separately and then combine those amounts.

The cost for the freshmen can be calculated by multiplying the number of freshmen by the price per ticket. With six freshmen at $11.99 each, the calculation is:

6 freshmen × $11.99 = $71.94

Next, for the juniors, we again multiply the number of juniors by the price per ticket. With two juniors at $9.99 each, the calculation is:

2 juniors × $9.99 = $19.98

Now, we add the total costs for both groups together:

$71.94 (freshmen) + $19.98 (juniors) = $91.92

This calculation confirms that the total cost for all the tickets is $91.92, which corresponds with one of the multiple-choice answers. Understanding how to break down the costs by each group of students and then summing them allows for a clear and accurate determination of the total expense.
