    You had $21 to spend on three raffle tickets. After buying them you have $12. How much does each raffle ticket cost?

    If we have $12 left, we spent:
    Total Raffle Spend = Total Spend - LeftOver spend
    Total Raffle Spend = $21 - $12
    Total Raffle Spend = $9

    Calculate the cost per raffle ticket:
    Cost per raffle ticket = Total Raffle Spend / Cost Per raffle ticket
    Cost per raffle ticket = $9/3
    Cost per raffle ticket = $3
