Step-by-step explanation:
Let Number of senior citizen tickets
sold = x
Number of students tickets sold = 3.x
Number of adult tickets sold = 4 x 3x
= 12x
/* According to the problem given */
3x = x + 142
+ 3x – x = 142
2 x = 142
142 == 2
> x = 71
. Number adult tickets sold
= 12x
= 12 x 71
= 852
The total number of shares owned by x shareholders
= x*y
=xy shares
The percentage of shares=
