Question

A total of 624 tickets were sold for the school play. They were either adult tickets or student tickets. There were 74 more student tickets sold than adult tickets. How many adult tickets were sold?

Answer 1

ok i would solve this like this. 624 divided by 2 = 312 and it says 74 more students tickets were sold than the adults then i would do 312 - 74 = 238 so the answer i would say is (There were 238 Adult tickets sold)
