Question

Example $4

A school sells adult play tickets for $7 and student tickets for the play for $4. If the school sold
420 student tickets, how many adult tickets were sold if the total sales for the play were $3010.

Answer 1

190 adult tickets.

Explanation:

Well,

420 × 4 = 1,680

3,010 - 1,680 = 1330

1330 ÷ 7 = 190.

So 190 adult tickets to the play were sold.
