You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Let +x+ = number of child's tickets
Let +y+ = number of adult tickets
------------------------------------------
+10y+%2B+6x+%3E+600+
+5y+%2B+3x+%3E+300+
You can't solve. There is no way to know
how many tickets there are
Say you only have 1 adult ticket.
+6%2A1+%2B+3x+%3E+300+
+3x+%3E+294+
+x+%3E+98+
But you get other values for +x+ if you
change +y+
