Start with $10.00.

Subtract the admission fee of $2.00.

So, she now has $8.00 to spend on rides.

Divide $8.00 by $.50 to determine the number of rides she can ride.

16 rides
Tamara can go on 16 rides. It costs $2 to get in, so you now have $8. Since each ride costs $.50 and there is $1.00 in a dollar, you multiply 8 times 2 to get the number of rides you can ride.
