Answer:

630

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of adult tickets be a.

Let the number of children tickets be c.

For that day's performance, they have sold a total of 1180 tickets. That means that:

a + c = 1180 _____________ (1)

Also, they have sold 80 more adult tickets than children’s tickets.

This means that:

a = c + 80 ______________(2)

Putting (2) in (1):

c + 80 + c = 1180

2c + 80 = 1180

Collecting like terms:

2c = 1180 - 80

2c = 1100

c = 1100 / 2 = 550

From (2):

a = 550 + 80

a = 630

They sold 630 adult tickets.
