Answer:

Explanation:

Let
L be the number of tickets given away to listeners, and
E be the number of tickets given away to employees.

From the problem statement, we know the following two equations can be formed:


L + E = 235


L = 4E

If we substitue the second equation into the first, we can solve for
E:


L + E = 235


(4E) + E = 235


5E = 235


E = 47
