each. Tickets sales revenue is $3510. How many tickets of each type were
sold?​

Answer 1

Total number of tickets sold to an adult is 263 and ticket sold to a student is 160.

Explanation:

• Create 3 columns Ticket, Number of ticket sold and total.
• Create 2 rows Adult and Children.
• Adult ticket is 10$ each and children ticket is unknown.
• Total ticket sold is 423 and Sales revenue is $3510?
• Since last digit of 3510 ends in 0 it will be easy to calculate Children
• An estimate to be taken since children ticket is mostly half of Adult.
• lets take 5$ for student and 10$ is already given.
• Answers does not show accurate it has to be a decimal.
• So we found out  10$ of 263 equals 2630 for adult.
• We found out 5.50$ of 160 equals 880 for student.
