A traveling with thrill rides charges $9 for admission plus $1.50 for each ride you take. If you pay $19.50 total, how many rides did you take

7 rides

Step-by-step explanation:

1. find the amount of money you spent on rides (total money spent - admission fee) = $19.50 - $9 = $10.50

2. find the number of rides you rode (money spent on rides/cost of each ride) = $10.50/$1.50 = 7
