Question

A total of 646 tickets were sold. They were either adult ticket or student tickets. There were 54 fewer student tickets sold than adult tickets. How many adult tickets were sold?

Answer 1

Answer:

350

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of adult tickets be x, then the number of student tickets sold would be (x–54).

We now have

x+(x–54)=646

2x=700

x=350

Therefore, 350 adult tickets were sold.
