Let 
be the tickets that the adults bought, and
be the tickets that children bought.
From the problem we have the system of linear equations:
The first thing we are going to do to solve our system, is replacing equation (2) in equation (1), and then, solve for
Now that we have the number of tickets that the adults bought, lets replace that value in equation (2):
Last but not least, to find the total number of tickets, we are going to add and

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We require 2 equations with the repeating decimal after the decimal point in both equations.
The bar above 136 indicates that 136 is being repeated
let x = 0.136136...... → (1) Multiply both sides by 1000
1000x = 136.136.... → (2)
Subtract (1) from (2) to eliminate the decimal part
999x = 136 ( divide both sides by 999 )
x =
