Answer:
431 reserved tickets, 1356 general tickets
Step-by-step explanation:
4x + 3y = 5792
x + y = 1787
Start with these equations and guess numbers and eventually you'll be right
1000x + 787y =6361 WRONG
700x + 1087y = 6061 WRONG
500 x + 1287y = 5861, close but WRONG
430 x + 1357 y = 5791, very close but WRONG
431 x + 1356y = $5792, CORRECT
431 + 1356 = 1787 tickets sold

I hope this helps! Let me know if I get anything wrong so I can fix it.
3/4 is over half.
40/97 is about 40/100 = 4/10 is slightly less than half
1/6 is well under half, which would be 3/6.
Least-to-greatest, the numbers are
... 1/6, 40/97, 3/4
