How many return tickets?

A return ticket from Town A to Town B costs £3.50.
A single ticket from Town A to Town B costs £2.40.
A group of 5 friends buys exactly enough tickets (single and return) to make a total of 8 journeys between Town A and Town B.

They spend exactly £13.90 in total.

How many return tickets did they buy?

  1. Let r = number of return tickets
    Each return = 2 journeys → total journeys = 2r
    We need 8 journeys, so the rest must be single tickets:
    Number of single tickets = 8 – 2r

    Total cost = return tickets × £3.50 + single tickets × £2.40
    → £3.50r + £2.40(8 – 2r) = £13.90
    → 3.5r + 19.2 – 4.8r = 13.9
    → –1.3r = –5.3
    → r = 4

    Final Answer: They bought 4 return tickets.
