A total of 336 tickets were sold for the school play. They were either adult tickets or student tickets. The number of student tickets sold was two times the number of adult tickets sold. How many adult tickets were sold?

Respuesta :

Let x = number of adult tickets

Let 2x = number of student tickets.


So, x + 2x = 336

3x = 336

x = 112


They sold 112 adult tickets.

[tex]336 = x + 2x \\ 336 = 3x \\ 112 = x[/tex]
