To find out how many tickets Joseph can buy, you need to subtract the cost of the hat from the total amount he has.
Total amount - Cost of hat = Amount remaining for tickets
34.25 - 12.50 = 21.75
Now, divide the remaining amount by the cost of each ticket to find out how many tickets Joseph can buy.
21.75 / 7.25 = 3
Therefore, Joseph can buy 3 tickets.
The correct answer is A. 3 tickets.
