Answer:

Children = 215 Tickets

Explanation:

Givens

Total amount = 3280

Total Tickets = 785

Cost of 1 Child Ticket (C) = 2$

Cost of 1 Adult Ticket (A) = 5$

Equations

2C + 5A = 3280

C + A = 785 Multiply this by 2

Solution

2C + 2A = 1570

2C + 5A = 3280

Subtract

- 3A = -1710 Divide by -3

A = 570

C + A = 785

C = 785 - 570

C = 215

Check

215 * 2 + 570 * 5

430 + 2850 = 3280 which is what the total was.
