Answer: 2598.8

Solution:
Step one: 49•12.80 = 627.2 (the amount that people under 16 payed)
Step two: 155-49=106 (the amount of people over 16)
Step three: 106•18.60=1971.6 (the amount of money that people over 16 payed)
Step four: 627.2+1971.6=2598.8 (the total amount of collected money from tickets)
