c = number of children tickets sold
\n" ); document.write( "a = number of adult tickets sold\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "a + c = 305
\n" ); document.write( "5a + 3.75c = 1300\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Multiply the first equation by 5.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "5a + 5c = 1525
\n" ); document.write( "5a + 3.75c = 1300\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "We get 1.25c = 225, or c = 180.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "There were 180 childrens' tickets and 125 adult tickets.
