The local amusement park charges 17.95 per person. However after 5 pm the charge is reduced to 13.55 per person. A group of 4 adults is planning to go to the park. How much will they save if they go after 5 pm?
The local amusement park charges $17.95 per person and 4 adults are planning to go.
17.95 * 4 = $71.80
However, after 5 PM the charge is reduced to $13.55 per person.
13.55 * 4 = $54.20
The question asks how much the group will save if they go to the amusement park after 5 PM. To find this amount, we subtract the amount that it costs for them to go to the amusement park after 5 PM from the amount that it would cost them to go in the morning.
$71.80 - $54.20 = $17.60
Therefore, the group of 4 adults would save $17.60 if they went to the amusement park after 5 PM.
