At an amusement park, 40 percent of the tickets were sold in the first hour. If 800 tickets were sold in the first hour, which equation can be used to find the total number of tickets sold for the entire day?

StartFraction 800 divided by 40 Over 40 divided by 40 EndFraction = StartFraction 20 Over 1 EndFraction
StartFraction 100 divided by 4 Over 800 divided by 4 EndFraction = StartFraction 25 Over 200 EndFraction
StartFraction 40 times 20 Over 800 times 20 EndFraction = StartFraction 800 divided by 16,000 EndFraction
