Answer:

600 tickets does it sells.

Explanation:

Total Capacity of the theater is, 1800 people.

and sells
=(1)/(3) of its seats.

To find how many ticket it sell.

Tickets sold is equal to the one third of the capacity of the theater

therefore,

Tickets sold
=(1)/(3) * 1800
=600

Hence, a theater holds 1,800 people and sells 1/3 of its seats then it sells the 600 tickets.
