If a stadium has 15,000 seats sold at $10.00, $12.50, and $15.00 equally distributed in three sections, how much can be made if the stadium sells out?

First we have to determine how many people fir in each section.
Since these sections are evenly distributed, each section has a third of the capacity, thus= 15,000/3 = 5000 persons per section.

Now we determine revenue by section by multiplying times the ticket price.

5,000 * $10.00 = $50,000
5,000 * $12.50 = $62,500
5,000 * $15.00 = $75,000

We add up the totals for $187,500 and that's the answer!
