Sagot :

i think that there is some mistake in task, because there is no good numbers
.
see solution below:

lets think that there are x adult tickets
 and y student tickets, so total cost of adult tickets is 30x$
and total cost of student's tickets is 24y$
Total cost of all tickets is 30x+24y=1622376
      total quantity of all tickets x+y=58389
 solve a system of equation:
x=58389-y
put this value in first equation:
30(58389-y)+24y=1622376
1756070-30y+24y=1622376
6y=133694
y=22282 1/3
