Answer 2

Answer:

Total number of tickets sold = 50

Let the number of children = x

Number of Adults = 50 - x

Amount from x children at} = 10 x

the rate of 10 rupees }

amount from 50 - x adults at the rate of 26 rupees = 26 (50-x)=1300-26×

since the total is 740, 10x + 1300 - 26x = 740

adding 26x on both sides,

10x + 1300 - 26x = 740 + 26x

10x + 1300 =740+26x

subtracting 10x from both sides,

10 × 1300 - 740 + 26x - 10x

1300 = 740 + 16x, 16x + 740 = 1300

16x = 1300 - 740 = 560

x = 560 ÷ 16 = 35

Number of childrens = 35

Number of Adults = 50 - 35 = 15
