Let 'x' be the number of weekday tickets and 'y' be the number of weekend tickets
Total number of tickets = ----------------eq.1
Cost of weekday ticket = $18
Cost of weekend ticket = $21
Total cost = $114
18x + 21y = 114 Divide the expression by 3
--------------------------------------eq.2
Solving eq.1 and 2, we get
y = 2 and x = 4
