Question

Adult and student tickets to the high school basketball game are sold each week. For every two adult tickets, seven student tickets are sold. How many total tickets were sold if 92 adult tickets were sold?

Answer 1

414 tickets!

Explanation:

If there were sold 92 adult tickets, and for every two of them, 7 student tickects are sold, we have the following:

92 / 2 = 46

Multiply by 7.

46 * 7 = 322 student tickets.

322 students tickets + 92 adult tickets = 414 tickets in total.
