last weekend, 5% of the tickets sold at SeaWorld were discount tickets. If SeaWorld sold 60 tickets in all,how many discount tickets did it sell? Use the percent proportion. Show work

Answer 1

0.05 = 5 percent
1 = 100 percent

0.05: 1 = x : 60
x = 3 (multiply innies by innies, outies by outies)

They sold 3 discount tickets.
