You can put this solution on YOUR website! Something is wrong with these figures.
a+c=50 or c=50-a
56a+3c=4,180
56a+3(50-a)=4,180
56a+150-3a=4,180
53a=4,180-150
53a=4,030
a=4,030/53
a=76.04 not a valid ans. because it's > 50 tickets sold.
---------------------------------------------------------------
If all the tickets sold were adults then:
50*56=$2,800 You can't get $4,180 for 50 tickets @ $56 & $3 dollars each.
