Memorial Stadium is an older venue and has only two gates with two ticket booths at each gate. The stadium recommends that fans arrive at least two hours before games to ensure they can get to their seats by the start of the game. If each ticket booth can process 400 fans/hour, what is the stadium's maximum ingress throughput?

Answer 1

Answer 2

Total tickets sold is 1600 tickets.

Explanation:

Given : A memorial Stadium is an older venue and has only two gates with two ticket booths at each gate.

The stadium recommends that fans arrive at least two hours before games to ensure they can get to their seats by the start of the game.

If each ticket booth can process 400 fans/hour.

We have to find the stadium's maximum ingress throughout.

Since, The number of tickets sold in an hour in each booth is 400

There are in total 2 booths and each booth sold tickets for 2 hours

So, Total tickets sold is number of tickets each booth sold per hour × number of hours × number of booths

Thus, Total tickets sold = 400 × 2 ×2 = 1600

Hence, Total tickets sold is 1600 tickets.
