children and how many adults were admitted?

Answer:

184 children and 185 adults!

Step-by-step explanation:

So let's suppose there are x children who entered the park that day, then there will be (369-x) adults who entered the park that day.

So we have an equation!

1.5x+4(369-x)=1016

1.5x+1476-4x=1016

Then we swivel things around a bit.

1476-1016=4x-1.5x

2.5x=460

x=184

There are 184 children in that park that day! Wow, that's a lot of people, next we calculate the number of adults:

369-184

=185

OK, 184 children and 185 adults!

Hoped I helped! Have a nice day!
