Question

The 20,000 seats available at Madison Square Garden for a popular concert sold out in just 12

minutes. If the tickets sold at a constant rate, how many tickets sold in 5 minutes (min)? Round
the answer to the nearest whole number.

Answer 1

8333 tickets.

Explanation:

If you take 20,000 and divide it by 12 you get 1666.66

You then take 1666.66 and times it by 5.

The answer you get is 8333.33 but the instructions say to round it to the nearest whole number which would be 8333. Hope this helps!!
