It usually works well to let a variable represent the higher-value item in the mix. Here, we can let 'a' represent the number of adult tickets sold. Then the total revenue is ...

 1.50a +1.00(550 -a) = 687.50

 0.50a = 162.50 . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 550 and collect terms

 a = 325

 c = 550 -325 = 225

325 adult and 225 children's tickets were sold
