 103 adult tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Adult tickets (a) = a

Student tickets (s) = 2a

Total = 309

a + 2a = 309

     3a = 309

      a = 103

Step-by-step explanation:

Total tickets sold = 309

Let the number of adult tickets sold be x

Let the number of student tickets sold be 2x

Adult tickets + student tickets = 309

Collect like terms

Divide both sides of the equation by 3

Calculate

Hence, 103 adult tickets were sold.
