How to solve this?
x= Price of ticket.
Scenario 1: Assume she bought the ticket 60 days prior the conference, because the next day will be 59th and the discount rate will change.
60th day price:- 0.6x=252, which makes x=420. Which makes the 59th day price: 0.7(420)=294. (which does not match the price in question)
Scenario 2: She bought the tickets 30 days prior the conference, so that the next day will be 29th.
30th day :0.7x=252; which makes the real price x= 360.
29th day : 0.85(360)=306 (which matchs the price in the question)
Hence the answer is B) 30 days.
