There are 620 people at a play. The admission price is $2 for adults and $1 for children. The receipts totalled $960.00. How many adults and how many children attended?

Respuesta :

To get the answer, divide the receipts by 2 to get the total cost for adults and divide it again to get the total number of parents who attended

Cost for adults is $480.00
Number of adults is 240

Now, to get the children, subtract the total number of people by the number of adults.
620-240=380

Number of children is 380
