 balcony tickets =_________
 mezzanine tickets=________

      (Show Source): 
You can put this solution on YOUR website! x = number of tickets main y = number of tickets balcony
 z = number of tickets mezzanine
 ---
 43x + 35y + 27z = 45839
 x = y + z + 71
 y = 3z + 303
 ---
 put the system of linear equations into standard form
 ---
 43x + 35y + 27z = 45839
 x - y - z = 71
 y - 3z = 303
 ---
 copy and paste the above standard form linear equations in to this solver:

 solution:
 x = number of tickets main = 626
 y = number of tickets balcony = 492
 z = number of tickets mezzanine = 63
