For this case you can write a weighted average expression to find the average number of tickets sold per child.
 We have then that an expression that can represent this average is the following:
 average = (((tickets1) * (class1)) + ((tickets2) * (class2)) + ((tickets3) * (class3))) / ((class1) + (class2) + (class3))
 answer
 an expression for the average number of tickets sold per school child is
 average = (((tickets1) * (class1)) + ((tickets2) * (class2)) + ((tickets3) * (class3))) / ((class1) + (class2) + (class3))
