Answer:

84 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

So first off lets add the tickets we sold to the tickets we have left. Lets x equal the amount of tickets we started with before selling.

25+17=x

Add them up.

42=x

We started with 42 tickets. To find how many tickets we had before spiting the tickets. We need to multiply our tickets by 2 since we had half. Let y be this number

42*2=y

Multiply them up

84=y

We started with 84 tickets.
