Respuesta :

Answer:

76 adult tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

There were a total of 304 tickets sold at a school play.

The tickets were either adult or student tickets.

Let the number of adult tickets sold be x.

The number of student tickets were 3x.

So x + 3x = 304

4x = 304

Dividing through by 4 gives;

x = 304 ÷ 4 = 76

So there were 76 adult tickets sold.
