A total of 704 tickets were sold for the school play they were either adult tickets they were 54 more student tickets sold than adult tickets how many adult tickets were sold

Sagot :

Answer:

325

Step-by-step explanation:

Let S be the number of student tickets and A the number of adult tickets

Total number of tickets sold:

S + A = 704   (1)

Since there were 54 more student than adult tickets

S - A = 54   (2)

Subtract (2) from (1) to eliminate S

(2) - (1)

S+A - (S-A) = 704-54

S-S + A - (-A) = 650

2A = 650

A = 650/2 = 325

Number of adult tickets sold = 325
