Answer:

8 children tickets 10 adult tickets

Explanation:

The total amount should be $ 320 not 1,320 because if you divide that amount into 18 tickets it will be an average of $73.333 per ticket

A= adults C= children

A+C =18

C= 18-A

20A + 15(18-A) = 320

20A +270 -15A = 320

5A = 50

A= 10

10 adults 8 children

10x$20 =$ 200 8x$15 =$ 120

$200+$120 =$ 320
