Question

At the movie theater, child admission is $5.30 and adult admission is 9.20. On Monday, four times as many adult tickets as child tickets were sold, for a total sales of $1305.10 how many child tickets were sold that day?

Answer 1

124 tickets sold at $9.20 = $1140.80
124÷4 =31
31 tickets sold at $5.30 = $164.30
$1140.80+$164.30=$1305.10
so so if you take the 124 tickets and divide it by 4 you get 31. The answer is 31 rickets were sold that day.
