Answer:
it is the second one
Step-by-step explanation:
This is the assumption method ;)
Take all tickets to be adult tickets
$9 x 553 = $4977
Then..... $4977 - $3936 = $1041
The difference between the child and adult ticket is $3, so divide $1041 by $3
$1041 divided by $3 = 347
347 is the number of <em>child </em>tickets sold
347 x $6 = $2082
So 553 - 347 = 206 ( no. of adult tickets )
206 x $9 = $1854
Child tickets sold : 347
Adult tickets sold : 206

Answer:
61 , 63 , 65 , 67
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the least even number be denoted by x. The sum of the four consecutive even numbers would be:
(x) + (x + 2) + (x + 4) (x + 6) = 256
First, simplify. Combine all like terms:
x + x + x + x + 2 + 4 + 6 = 256
4x + 12 = 256
Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.
First, subtract 12 from both sides of the equation:
4x + 12 (-12) = 256 (-12)
4x = 256 - 12
4x = 144
Next, divide 4 from both sides of the equation:
(4x)/4 = (144)/4
x = 144/4
x = 61
61 is your first number. Find the next 3 consecutive numbers:
x = 61
x + 2 = 63
x + 4 = 65
x + 6 = 67
Check:
61 + 63 + 65 + 67 = 256
256 = 256
