There was a total of 375 tickets sold.
The number of student tickets was 2 times the number of adult tickets.

Let's use "x" for the number of student tickets, and "y" for adult tickets.
x + y = 375
But we know that x was 2 times y.
x = 2y

(2y) + y = 375
3y = 375
y = 125

So the answer for this is:
There were 125 adult tickets sold.
The answer would be '125 adult tickets'.
