Answer 1

Find the question in the attachment below.

Number of tickets sold on Saturday
`=6986`

Number of tickets sold over the days
`=9640`

Explanation:

a.

Number of tickets sold on Saturday

Twice as many as the number of adult tickets
`=2* 976= 1952`

Three times as many as the number of children's tickets
`3* 1678=5034`

Total number of tickets sold on Saturday =
`(1952+5034)=6986`

b.

Total number of tickets sold on Friday and Saturday

Summation of adult and children's ticket on both the days.

`=(6986+976+1678)=9640`

So total tickets sold on Saturday is
`6986` and tickets sold on both days
`=9640`
