You have 168 ride tickets. You need 4 tickets to ride the Ferris wheel and 8 tickets to ride the roller Coaster. You ride both rides a total of 26 times. How many times did you ride the roller coaster?

You ride the roller coaster 8 times.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; You need 4 tickets to ride the Ferris wheel and 8 tickets to ride the roller coaster. You have been on the Ferris wheel 26 times.

Tickets needed to ride Ferris wheel = 4 tickets,

Tickets needed to ride the roller coaster = 8 tickets.

Tickets spent riding the Ferris wheel = tickets to ride the Ferris wheel * Number of times on the Ferris wheel = 8 tickets * 26 times = 104 tickets.

Step 2; We need to calculate the number of remaining tickets and how many times I can ride the roller coaster.

Remaining tickets = 168 - 104 = 64 tickets.

Times I can ride the roller coaster = remaining tickets / tickets to ride the roller coaster

= 64 / 8 = 8 times.
