A Movie theater sold 5 times as many children's tickets as adult tickets to an afternoon show. If 132 tickets were sold in all, how many were children's tickets?

22x5=110
110+22=132
so if they sold 22 adult tickets 5 times that many is 110. they sold 110 children tickets, plus the 22 adult tickets equals the total of 132 tickets. So the answer is 110
