Puzzle Image

Solution (Previous Puzzle):

Adult's tickets were Rs.18 and children's were Rs.14.

This is easily solved using a common method for solving simultaneous equations.
First construct two algebraic equations, where C is the number of children, and A is the number of adults:

   4296C + 2143A = 98718              [1]
   5146C + 2807A = 122570             [2]

To make the number in front of C the same on both we multiple [1] by 5146 and [2] by 4296 to give:

   22107216C + 11027878A = 508002828  [3]
   22107216C + 12058872A = 526560720  [4]

Now we can do [4] - [3] to give:

   1030994A = 18557892

Divide throughout by 1030994 so that:

   A = 18

Substituting A = 18 in [1] will give:

   4296C + 2143 x 18 = 98718
   4296C + 38574     = 98718
   4296C             = 60144

   C = 14

As required.
