Let x be the number of tickets given to employees.
Then the number of tickets given to listeners is 2x.
The total number of tickets given away is x + 2x = 3x.
Given that the total number of tickets given away is 126, we have:
3x = 126
Dividing both sides by 3:
x = 126/3
x = 42
Therefore, the radio station gave away 42 tickets to employees.
