    X = adult tickets and x+58 = student tickets

    Create the equation from the problem.

    x + x + 58 = 708

    Combine like terms.

    2x + 58 = 708

    Subtract 58.

    2x = 650

    Divide by 2.

    x = 325

    Therefore, your answer is:

    there were 325 adult tickets sold.

    (Adding 58 to that number will get you the student tickets sold which is 383 if they ask.)
