    Answer: (36-13.50) / 5 = 4.50

    Step-by-step explanation:

    First, you need to amount spent on the tickets. To get this, we need to subtract the total amount spent by the amount paid for administration.

    36 - 13.50 = 22.50

    We then need to find out how much was spent per ticket. To do that, we need to divide the amount left by the number of tickets bought. Since there were 5 tickets bought, divide the new amount, 13.50, by 5.

    23.50/5 = 4.50

    Each ticket cost $4.50.

    To check your work, multiply 2.50 by 5, then add 13.50 to the amount.

    4.50x5 = 22.50

    22.50 + 13.50 = 36
