Question

The circus had one performance at the Dewey Civic center and one at the Atlantic Auditorium. The Dewey Civic center has 1,600 seats. Tickets for 85% of the total number of seats were sold. How many tickets were sold.

Answer 1

Explanation:

Tickets sold = % * Total number of seats.

% = 85/100 = 0.85

Total number of seats = 1600

Tickets sold = 0.85 * 1600

Tickets sold = 1360 tickets sold.
