Question 109609




if:
{{{x}}} .....number of tickets
{{{(6/7)x}}}....number of sold tickets
{{{82}}}.....were left over


then:

{{{(6/7)x + 82 = x}}}………multiply both sides by {{{7}}}

{{{6x + 82*7 = 7x}}}

{{{6x + 574= 7x}}}…..move {{{6x}}} to the right

{{{x = 574}}}


{{{(6/7)x =  (6/7) 574 = (6*574)/7 = 492}}}………number of sold tickets

{{{492 + 82 = 574}}}

{{{574 = 574}}}
