Given:
Cost of each ticket = $167
Cost of insurance per ticket = $19
Website charge on whole purchase = $16
Total charges = $1132
Total cost of tickets = Total cost - website cost
$(1132-16) = $1116
cost of 1 ticket = $(167+19) = $186
So, Number of tickets = 1116/186
=6 tickets
Thus, family buy 6 tickets .
