At a school fair, each child received 5 tickets to play games. If there were 12 children at the fair, how many tickets were given out in total?
To calculate the total number of tickets, multiply the number of children by the number of tickets each child received. This can be expressed with the equation:
Total \, Tickets = Number \, of \, Children \times Tickets \, per \, Child
Calculate using: $$ Total \, Tickets = 12 \times 5 $$
