Step-by-step explanation:
If you look at the numbers you are given, you see that the first purchase has 3 more adult tickets than the second purchase, and its cost is £24 more. This means an adult ticket costs £24/3 = £8.

£31 -16 = £15
Each child ticket is then £15/3 = £5.
An adult ticket costs £8; a child ticket costs £5.

Multiply each side by 2
1/2y *2 = 4*2
y = 8
