Answer:

The answer is £ 496

Profit ( P) = Selling price (S) - Cost price ( C)

From the above question

Cost price = £3000

To find the selling price multiply the price of one ticket by the number of tickets sold

That's

Selling price = £18.50 × 189 = £3496

So now

Profit = £3496 - £3000 = £ 496

Hope this helps you
