Assign x to adult tickets and y to student tickets, then set up the system
5x+y=2465 and
x+y=1077
You can subtract the second equation from the first to get
4x=1388
=> x=347
Then to find y do 1077-347 to find
y=730
Final answer:
347 adult tickets and 730 student tickets were sold.
Hope I helped :)
When dividing two fractions, invert the second one and multiply the 2 top numbers and the 2 bottom numbers.

Hello!
"Increase" means to add. We must find out what 45% of 140 fluid ounces is, and to do that we must first convert the percentage to a decimal and then multiply it by the amount of fluid ounces.
I know, that's probably a lot to take in! :D
45% ÷ 100 = 0.45 as a decimal
0.45 × 140 = 63
Add this to the amount of fluid ounces:
140 + 63 = 203
Final Answer:
203 fluid ounces.
