Answer:

Number of Adult's tickets sold on Saturday = 3,356

Number of Children's tickets sold on Saturday = 2, 928

Total number of tickets sold over these two days is 8,938.

Explanation:

Here, the number of tickets sold on FRIDAY:

Adult Ticket sold = 1,678

Children's Tickets sold = 976

So, the total number of tickets sold on Friday

= Sum of ( Adult + Children's ) tickets = 1,678 + 976 = 2,654 .... (1)

The number of tickets sold on SATURDAY:

Adult Ticket sold = 2 times as many as the number of adult tickets sold

on Friday

= 1,678 x 2 = 3,356

Children's Tickets sold = 3 times as many as the number of children's

tickets sold on Friday.

= 976 x 3 = 2, 928

So, the total number of tickets sold on Saturday

= Sum of ( Adult + Children's ) tickets = 3,356 + 2,928 = 6, 284 .... (2)

Now, the total number of tickets booked in these two days :

Sum of tickets booked on (Friday + Saturday)

= 2,654 + 6, 284 = 8,938

Hence, total number of tickets sold over these two days is 8,938.
