Jackson School takes 156 students to the World Fair. Each
ticket cost $17.00. The school received 15% off after 100
tickets. How much did the school pay in total for the World
Fair?

The total amount paid by the school for the world fair is $2509.2

Explanation:

Given-

Total number of student, T = 156

Cost of each ticket, C = $17

Discount, d = 15%

Amount school paid for the fair, x = ?

C(100) = $1700

Remaining tickets = 156 - 100

                              = 56

Cost of 56 tickets:

C(56) = $952

The school received a discount of 15% after 100 tickets.

So, price after discount is

The school got a discount of $142.8

So,

Price of remaining 56 tickets after discount = $952 - $142.8

                                                                         = $809.2

Total amount to be paid by the school for the fair = C(100) + C(56) after discount

                                                                                   = $1700 + $809.2

                                                                                   = $2509.2

Therefore, total amount paid by the school for the world fair is $2509.2.
