A professor teaches a graduate level course with 15 students in the
class, an upper division course with 21 students in the class, and a
Calculus course with 35 students in the class. The professor originally
was given 100 tickets to the universities football game to distribute.
After giving some out, the professor decides to distribute the rest of
the tickets to the class which receives the highest mean score on their
upcoming respective exams. If the professor distributes the tickets evenly to
the graduate class, there will be 8 tickets left over, if the tickets
are distributed evenly to the upper division class, there will be 11 tickets
left over, and if the tickets are distributed evenly to the Calculus class,
there will be 18 tickets left over. How many tickets does the professor
have left to distribute to one of the classes?
