Detailed Explanation
Let x equal the number of daily tickets you would purchase. 36x = the daily ticket cost.
240 < 36x
240/36 < x
\(6\frac{{2} }{{3}}\) < x
You would need to use the ticket more than \(6\frac{{2} }{{3}}\) times (or 7 times) in order for it to be cheaper to use the season ticket.
240 < 36x
240/36 < x
\(6\frac{{2} }{{3}}\) < x
