Answer:

There are 875 seats. The stadium got $168,000 from the tickets.

Explanation:

So there is more than one question so let's break them down one by one

1). How many seats are there in each section? So the stadium is divided into 12 sections and 8 are VIP boxes so 12 - 8 = 4 so there are 4 non-VIP sections. Now to find out how many seats are in each section we need to divide the number of seats by the number of sections which would be 10,500 ÷ 12 = 875.

2). If all the seats in the premium section are sold out for the game how many will the stadium get from those ticket sales? So first we need to find out how many seats there are in the premium section, we already know that there are 4 premium sections and we also know that there are 875 seats in each section. Multiply the number of sections by the number of seats 4 x 875 = 3,500 now multiply the number of seats by the cost of the seat 3,500 x $48 = $168,000

So the answers are $168,000 and 875 seats

Hope this helped :)

There are a couple of questions here, so let's break them down one by one:

How many more seats are there in each section?
The stadium is divided into 12 equal sections. We know that there are 8 VIP boxes, which leaves 12 - 8 = 4 non-VIP sections. We also know that there are 10,500 seats in total. To find out how many seats are in each section, we can divide the total number of seats by the number of sections:
Number of seats per section = Total number of seats ÷ Number of sections
Number of seats per section = 10,500 ÷ 12
Number of seats per section = 875

So there are 875 seats in each section. To find out how many more seats there are in the premium section compared to the standard section, we need to know how many seats are in each type of section. We know that there are 4 non-VIP sections, which means there are:

4 premium sections
10 - 4 = 6 standard sections
To calculate the total number of seats in the premium sections, we can multiply the number of premium sections by the number of seats per section:

Total number of seats in premium sections = Number of premium sections x Number of seats per section
Total number of seats in premium sections = 4 x 875
Total number of seats in premium sections = 3,500

To calculate the total number of seats in the standard sections, we can multiply the number of standard sections by the number of seats per section:

Total number of seats in standard sections = Number of standard sections x Number of seats per section
Total number of seats in standard sections = 6 x 875
Total number of seats in standard sections = 5,250

The difference in the number of seats between the premium and standard sections is:

Difference in seats = Total number of seats in premium sections - Total number of seats in standard sections
Difference in seats = 3,500 - 5,250
Difference in seats = -1,750

This means that there are 1,750 fewer seats in the premium sections compared to the standard sections.

If all the seats in the premium section are sold out for a game, how much will the stadium get from those ticket sales?
We know that there are 4 premium sections, each with 875 seats, for a total of 3,500 seats. We also know that each seat in the premium section costs $48 per game. To calculate the total revenue from selling out all the premium seats, we can multiply the number of seats by the price per seat:
Total revenue = Number of seats x Price per seat
Total revenue = 3,500 x $48
Total revenue = $168,000

Therefore, if all the seats in the premium section are sold out for a game, the stadium will get $168,000 from those ticket sales.
