Answer:
4 adult tickets and 3 child tickets
Step-by-step explanation:
So doing 234/7 gives you 33.428... which means its not all just children or adults. (I know that's common sense but it's best to do this anyway to further justify your answer)
The total cost for all 7 people shows that there must be an even amount of adult tickets to end up with a whole number so either 2, 4, or 6 adults.
2 adults = $75
4 adults = $150
6 adults = $225
Now we can use these possibilities to figure out if the left over child tickets added to the adult tickets would equal $234. (quick note: I am using # to show that it doesn't equal $234)
If 2 adults = $75, 5 children = $140, $140+$75 = $215 # $234
If 4 adults = £150, 3 children = $84, $84+$150 = $234
Now because we have already figured out that it would be 4 adult tickets and 3 child tickets, we wouldn't need to figure out 6 adult tickets and 1 child ticket, but, again, this would justify your answer and help to secure your marks.
If 6 adults = $225, 1 child = 28, $28+$225 = $253 # $234
I hope this answer helped you out and if you have any questions I'd be happy to help :)
