Question

A total of 584 tickets were sold for the school play. They were either adult tickets or student tickets. The number of student tickets sold was three times the number of adult tickets sold. How many adult tickets were sold?

Answer 1

Answer:

584

Step-by-step explanation:

146 adult tickets were sold.

write out your equation first: x+3x=584

4x=584

x=146

Try it out 146+3(146)=584

It worked. That's the solution.

so lets divide the amount of tickets by 4 because there are 4 parts needed in this situation which equals 146 then we know our answer is 146 because the other three parts go to the kids tickets
