Answer:

The number of people who went to the carnival on the 5th day is 2,348.

Step-by-step explanation:

Add the total number of people who went to the carnival, then multiply by the unit cost of ticket.  The result is the total collection for 4 days.

Total collection for 4 days:

= 15 (4,565 + 1,235 + 4,342 + 1,987)

= 15 (12,129)

= 181,935

Subtract the 4-day total collection from the 5-day total collection to solve for the collection on the 5th day:

Collection on the 5th day:

= 217,155 - 181,935

= 35,220

Divide the collection on 5th day by the ticket unit cost to find the number of people who went to the carnival on the 5th day:

= 35,220/15

= 2,348

The number of people who went to the carnival on the 5th day is 2,348.
