Super easy!
A jet carries 342 passengers with 36 in first-class and the rest in coach. Suppose a first class ticket to fly from Los Angeles to Chicago costs $750 and a coach ticket costs $450. Use the four step problem solving plan to find the greatest possible ticket sales on one flight.
I'm an idiot, could you show me the steps and the solution?

You have 342 passenger, with 36 in first-class. So you have 342-36 passengers in coach.
Total sales for a full first-class section are 36 x $750.00.
Total sales for a full coach section are 306 x $450.00.
Total sales for a full plane are the sum of the 2 results above.

First, i subtract 36 (# in first-class) from 342 (total passengers) that equal 306 (# in coach).Then i multiply 36 (# in first-class) times $750 equal $27000. then multiply 306 (# in coach) time $450 equal $137700.Then added the two product to get the total possible ticket sales on this one flight is $164,700.

14 + 12 + 5 = 31 so 2 students are wearing both a) 14+12-2 = 24 b) 14-2 = 12 c) 12-2 = 10 Please note that alot of people will answer 26 for the first question, however this is incorrect: 29 - 5 = 24 (minus of people who arent wearing red OR blue 14+12 = 26 there is 26 blue and red colours but only 24 students this means 2 people must be wearing both colours as I just mentioned there is only 24 people so how many red and blue = 24 red not blue = red people less the people who wearing both blue not red = blue people less the people who wearing both
