$16 per adult
$9 per child

anonymous · Answer

Because the second tour only had two more children, we can find the child price by: $$95-77=18$$$$18\div2=9$$So the child price is $9

Now that we know the child price we can find the adult price:$$9\times5=45$$$$77-45=32$$$$32\div2=16$$So the adult price is $16
