Question

A stadium has 47,000 seats. Seats sell for ​$28 in Section​ A, ​$24 in Section​ B, and ​$20 in Section C. The number of seats in Section A equals the total number of seats in Sections B and C. Suppose the stadium takes in ​$1,187,600 from each​ sold-out event. How many seats does each section​ hold?

anonymous · Answer

section A has 1/2 of total seats in stadium, C and B have 1/4th each.

so A = 23500
B/C = 11750 each

you kinda  don't need the price of the seats or the total amount, it gives you enough information without those.
