Answer: Adult tickets were sold = 325

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, A = Number of adult tickets sold

S = Number of student tickets sold

Total number of tickets=599

Therefore:

                           A + S = 599

If, there were 51 fewer student tickets sold them adult tickets.

Since,

                            S=A-51

So, substitute A-51 for the value of the first equation.    

                            A+S=599    

                        A+(A-51)=599

Expanding to get:

                            2A-51=599

Solve to get:

                          2A=599+512

                          A=650A

                          A=325

So, A=325 adult tickets were sold.
