Answer:
The number of adults tickets and student tickets purchased is 5 and 3.
Given that,
Tickets to a movie cost $7.25 for adults and $5.50 for students.
A group of friends purchased 8 tickets for $52.75.
Here we assume the no of adult tickets and no of student tickets be x and y.
Based on the above information, the calculation is as follows:
7.25x + 5.50y = 52.75 .............(i)
x + y = 8
x = 8 - y..................(2)
Now put the x value in the equation (1)
So,
7.25(8-y) + 5.50y = 52.75
7.25 × 8 - 7.25y + 5.50y = 52.75
58 - 1.75y = 52.75
5.25 = 1.75y
y = 3
So,
x = 8 - 3
= 5
Therefore we can conclude that the number of adults tickets and student tickets purchased is 5 and 3.

15/8 19/12 5/2 is the answer for this problem
The sum of each group of numbers are as follows:
1. 110 + 83 + 328 = 521
2. 92 + 37 + 14 + 66 = 209
3. 432 + 11 + 157 + 30 = 630
It does not matter how much you re-arrange the numbers in each group, you will keep arriving at the same answers, this is because the sum of a particular set of numbers will always remain the same.
Because 3 / 6 = 0.5 and 4.5 / 9 = 0.5, the scale factor is 0.5 ;
