At a zoo, each adult ticket cost $26 and each child ticket cost $12. On Saturday, the number of adult tickets sold was 116 less than the number of child tickets. On Sunday, the number of adult tickets sold decreased by 5% while the number of child tickets sold increased by 25%. If a total of 1465 tickets were sold on Sunday, how much money was collected on Saturday?

	Adult tickets	Child tickets	Total tickets
Before	1 u	1 u + 116	2 u + 116
Change	- 0.05 u	+ 0.25 u + 29
After	0.95 u	1.25 u + 145	2.2 u + 145

5% x 1 u = ⁵₁₀₀ x 1 u = 0.05 u 
25% x 1 u = ²⁵₁₀₀ x 1 u = 0.25 u
25% x 116 = ²⁵₁₀₀ x 116 = 29

Number of tickets sold on Sunday
= 0.95 u + 1.25 u + 145
= 2.2 u + 145

2.2 u + 145 = 1465
2.2 u = 1465 - 145
2.2 u = 1320

1 u = 1320 ÷ 2.2 = 600

Amount collected from adult tickets on Saturday
= 1 u x 26
= 600 x 26
= $15600

Amount collected from child tickets on Saturday
= 12(1 u + 116)
= 12(600 + 116)
= 12 x 716
= $8592

Total amount collected on Saturday
= 15600 + 8592
= $24192

Answer(s):$24192
