Answer:

Adult tickets = 276

Step-by-step explanation:

a + s = 491          Eq. 1

a = s + 61             Eq. 2

a = adult tickets

s = student ticket

Replacing Eq. 2 in Eq. 1:

(s+61) + s = 491

2s + 61 = 491

2s = 491 - 61

2s = 430

s = 430/2

s = 215

from the Eq. 2

a = s + 61

a = 215 + 61

a = 276

Check:

from Eq. 1:

a + s = 491

276 + 215 = 491
