Answer:   Option D   Step-by-step explanation:        A) Carnival A; 0.75 x 20 = 15, 15 + 6 = 21        Carnival B; 0.5 x 20 = 10, 10 + 12 = 22, Since the amount of money you spend at carnival A and B is different,  A is not the answer     B) Carnival A; 0.75 x 14 = 10.5, 10.5 + 6 = 16.5        Carnival B; 0.5 x 14 = 7, 7 + 12 = 19, Since the amount of money you spend at carnival A and B is different,  B is not the answer       C) Carnival A; 0.75 x 18 = 13.5, 13.5 + 6 = 19.5        Carnival B; 0.5 x 18 = 9, 9 + 12 = 21, Since the amount of money you spend at carnival A and B is different,  C is not the answer       D) Carnival A; 0.75 x 24 = 18, 18 + 6 = 24         Carnival B; 0.5 x 24 = 12, 12 + 12 = 24, Since the amount of money you spend at carnival A and B is the same,  D is the answer    P.S Sorry for such a long post
