A music festival sold two types of tickets, day passes and weekend passes. The day passes were $137, and the weekend pass was $150. The total ticket sales for the festival were $484,608. They sold 374 more day passes that weekend passes. How many day passes and how many weekend passes were sold?

Answer 1

Sam has a typo

the total is 484608, not 486608

137(374+x)+(150x)=484608

51238+137x+150x=484608

51238+287x=484608

287x=433370

x = 1510

Answer 2

137d+150w=484608

137(374+x)+(150x)=486608

51238+137x+150x=486608

51238+287x=486608

287x=435370

435370/287=1516.96=x

d=1891

w=1517
