Read the following word problem: If each person gets 3/4 pound of squash, how many people can evenly split a 9-pound basket of squash from the farmer's market? Explain which number is the dividend and which is the divisor. Then write a division problem and find the quotient.

75 tickets have been sold so far.

step-by-step explanation:

in this question it is clearly mentioned that 45 children's tickets have been sold and this number is 60% of the total tickets sold.

now let's assume the total number of tickets sold be x.

then 60% of x = 45

⇒

⇒ x(.6) = 45

by dividing with .6 on both the sides of the equation

⇒ x = 75

therefore 75 tickets have been sold so far.
