    Number of child tickets = 9

    Number of adult tickets = 36

    Number of senior tickets = 27

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given:

    The ratio of adult tickets to child tickets = 4:1

    Ratio of adult tickets to senior tickets = 4:3

    Number of total tickets = 72

    Find:

    The number of each ticket.

    Computation:

    Ratio between Adult to senior to child = 4:3:1

    So,

    Number of child tickets = [1 / (4+3+1) ]Total tickets

    Number of child tickets = [1 / (8) ]72

    Number of child tickets = 9

    Number of adult tickets = [4 / (4+3+1) ]Total tickets

    Number of adult tickets = 36

    Number of senior tickets = [3 / (4+3+1) ]Total tickets

    Number of senior tickets = 27
