Tickets to a play cost $5 for adults and $2 for children. If 1,750 tickets were sold for a total of $7,100, how many children’s tickets were sold? Can someone explain me how to make this one step by step?

okay so you have 1750 tickets and 7100 dollars so you gotta do
7100 divided by 5 wich gives you the amount of adult tickets which is 1420 you then have to take 1420 away from 1750 which leaves you with 330
