Answer:
Cost of a child's ticket = c
No. of children = 5
Total cost of children's tickets = 5 * c = 5c
Cost of an adult's ticket = 2c
Total cost of adult's tickets = 2c * 2 = 4c
So, 4c + 5c = $ 3.15 = 315 cents
=> 9c = 315
=> c = 315/9
= 35 cents
Therefore, a child's ticket costs 35 cents and and adult's ticket costs 70 cents.
Hope it helps! Have a good day! Please mark as brainliest answer! :D
