Question

a museum opened at 8.00 a.m. In the first hour, 350 people purchaced admission tickets. In the second hour, 20% more people purchased admission tickets than the first hour. Each admission cost $17.50.

Answer 1

1st hour 350 purched tickets @ $17.50 each = $6,125

the second hour 20% more people purchased tickets than the first hour - 350 x 20%=70 more than 1st hour.so 70 x $17.50=$1,225 so total sales is $6,125 + 1,225=$7350
