3A+2S=824
\n" ); document.write( "A=2S
\n" ); document.write( "3(2S)+2S=824
\n" ); document.write( "6S+2S=824
\n" ); document.write( "8S=824
\n" ); document.write( "S=824/8
\n" ); document.write( "S=103 NUMBER OF STUDENT TICKETS WERE SOLD.
\n" ); document.write( "A=2*103=206 NUMBER OF ADULT TICKETS WERE SOLD.
