This is a "rate of pay" problem. The amount earned is equal to the (rate of pay) times the (number of hours worked).
Let the income be represented by "i". Then the formula is i = ($10.91/hour)*w, where w is the number of hours worked and has the unit of measurement "hours."
234 = a + s s = students a = adults
2a = s
after you get the equations you solve. plug 2a into the above equation.
so u get
234 = a + 2a
234=3a then divide 3 from each side
78 = a
so 78 adult tickets were sold
When we are dealing with fractions and decimals.
