Question

A concert hall earned $40,000 in sold−out comedy ticket sales. Front section tickets cost $150 per seat and back section tickets cost $50 per seat. The number of front section seats is three times the number of back section seats. How many seats are in the front section?

Answer 1

3:1
450:50
450+50=500

40,000 divided by 500 = 80
80 x 450 = 36000
80 x 50 = 4000

36000 divided by 150 = 240
4000 divided by 50 = 80
There are 240 seats in the front section.



36000 + 4000 = 4000
