Total of 380 tickets were sold for the school play. they were either adult tickets or student tickets. there were 70 fewer student tickets sold than adult tickets. how many adult tickets were sold?

Respuesta :

Let the amount of adult tickets sold be x

Since the total of 380 tickets sold consists of the amount of adult tickets and the amount of children tickets that are 70 fewer:

x + (x - 70) = 380
2x - 70 =380
2x = 450
x = 225

Therefore, the amount of adult tickets sold is 225
