According to the characteristics of <em>ticket</em> sales and the resulting system of linear equations we find that 122 children bought each one a ticket on Sunday.

<h3>How many children went to the movie theatre?</h3>

In this question we have a <em>word</em> problem, whose information must be translated into <em>algebraic</em> expressions to find a solution. Let be x and y the number of children and adults that went to the movie theatre, respectively.

We need two <em>linear</em> equations, one for the number of people assisting to the theatre and another for the total sales:

x - 4 · y = 0     (1)

6.30 · x + 9.50 · y = 1063.20     (2)

By algebraic procedures the solution to this system is: x = 122.559, y = 30.639. Since the number of tickets sold are integers, then we truncate each result: x = 122, y = 30.

According to the characteristics of <em>ticket</em> sales and the resulting system of linear equations we find that 122 children bought each one a ticket on Sunday.
