Answer:
220 adults and 250 children
Explanation:
we require to set up 2 equations and solve simultaneously.
let a be the number of adults and c the number of children , then
a + c = 470 → (1) based on number of people
3a + c = 910 → (2) based on ticket sales
subtract (1) from (2) term by term to eliminate c
(3a - a) + (c - c) = 910 - 470
2a + 0 = 440
2a = 440 ( divide both sides by 2 )
a = 220
substitute a = 220 into (1) and solve for c
220 + c = 470 ( subtract 220 from both sides )
c = 250
that is 220 adults and 250 children attended
