Answer:
Number of student tickets were sold = 409
Step-by-step explanation:
Total number of tickets sold = 771
I.e Students ticket (S) + Non students ticket(N S) = 771
Total amount to be paid for tickets = $ 3037
Amount paid by students per tickets = $3
Amount paid by non-students per tickets = $5
So, according to question
S + NS = 771
3 S + 5 NS = 3037
Solve both equations
5 S + 5 NS = 771 × 5
3 S + 5 NS = 3037
so ,
(5 S + 5 NS) - (3 S + 5 NS ) = 3855 - 3037
Or, 2 S = 818
I.e S = 
= 409
Hence, The number of student tickets were sold = 409 Answer

Answer:
13 carnations
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming you meant 2/5 because 2.5 would mean there are more roses in the vase than there are flowers in the vase, heres how to solve this.
Understanding
Each fraction is referring to "flowers" not "remaining flowers" and as such each time we will be comparing to the total.
2/5 of the total flowers are roses. This is written in words as for every 5 flowers two are roses, which means we will multiply 2 by how many sets of five we have in 30 flowers.
(30/5) x 2 =
(6) x 2 = 12 roses
Though with fractions its written as 30/1*2/5 which is the same as (30 x 2)/5
60/5 = 12 roses
Following this logic for every 6 flowers one is a daisy.
30/1 * 1/6 = (30 x 1)/6 = 30/6 = 5 daisies
Because the rest are carnations we want to subtract the amount of daisies and roses from the total amount of flowers to find the remaining flowers.
30 - 5 - 12 = 13 carnations
Hope this helps,
