Question

An amusement park sold 276 discount tickets and 299 full-price tickets. What percentage of the tickets sold were discount tickets?

Answer 1

Answer:Percentage of discount tickets =48%

Explanation:

Percentage of discount tickets = Number of discount tickets / total num ber of tickets x 100

But Total number of tickets = Discount tickets + full-price tickets

= 276 +299

= 575 tickets

Percentage of discount tickets = 276/575 x 100/1

0.48 x 100= 48 %
