    Let the number of child tickets sold be x

    Number of child tickets = x

    Number of adult tickets = x + 50

    Total cost of child tickets = 5x

    Total cost of adult tickets = 10 (x + 50)

    5x + 10 (x + 50) = 2060

    5x + 10x + 500 = 2060

    15x + 500 = 2060

    15x = 2060 - 500

    15x = 1560

    x = 104

    Number of child tickets sold = 104

    Number of adult tickets sold = 104 + 50 = 154
