A total of 428 tickets were sold for the school play. They were either adult tickets or student tickets. The number of student tickets sold was three times the number of adult tickets sold . How many adult tickets were sold?

425 tickets, if only 3 student tickets were sold... 428 total minus 3 student tickets = 425 adult tickets + 3 sold student tickets.
