Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Total Children = 80
Cost of adult's ticket= 8
Cost of child's ticket= 1/4 of adult's cost
Ratio Children to adult 2 : 3
Solution
Ratio
2:3
Total Children : 80
Then Let adult be x
Total Adult:
2 : 3
80 : x
2×x = 3×80
2x = 240
x= 240/2
x = 120
Adults: 120
Cost of each adult's ticket : 8 $
Cost of each child's ticket : 1/4 × 8 = 2$
Total cost of adult's ticket: 8 × 120 = 960 $
Total cost of child's ticket = 2 × 80= 160 $
Total cost of tickets: 960 + 160 = 1120 $

Answer:
childrens are 80 .
according to ratio adults will be 120 .
as = 2:3
= 40 × 2 : 3 × 40
= 80:120
adult ticket cost = 8$
cost of total adult ticket = 8 × 120
= 960 $
cost of each child ticket = 8÷4 = 2 $
total child's ticket cost = 2 × 80 = 160 $
Total money made child's money + adult's
from tickets sold = money
= 160 + 960
= 1120 $
