Answer:

b) 171. 3 DOLLARS

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

One extra TICKET is given free for every eight tickets bought.

Divide 38 by 8 = 38/8

Quotient = 4

4 tickets are free in 38 tickets.

Hence they have to pay money for (38-4) = 34 tickets

TOTAL cost = bus HIRING cost + zoo tickets

= 62.50 + 34 * 3.20 = 171. 3 dollars
