A tour group of 25 people paid a total of $630 for entrance to a museum. If this price included a 5% sales tax, and all the tickets cost the same amount, what was the face value of each ticket price without the sales tax?

A $22
B $23.94
C $24
D $25.20
E $30
Cost without tax = 630/1.05 = 600

price per person = 600/25 = 24

Answer: option C

25(x+5/100x)=630
25x+(5/4)x=630
(100x+5x)/4=630
105x=2520
x=2520/105
x=24
