The theater seats 300 people . How many seats were not sold for the musical? What fraction of the total seats available for the musical were sold as walk-in tickets? If reserved seats cost $12.50 , how much did the theater make from reserved seats to the musical?

Musical reserved seats= 255
walk-ins = 30

I worked your last problem. Now it's your turn.

What do you think the answer is?

15 seats not sold.

1 % of walk in tickets.

The theatre made $3187.5

Ms Sue may be busy. 15 seats not sold is correct. $3187.50 is correct for the amount of money the theater made from the 255 reserved seats sold. The middle answer is not correct; first because it asks for a fraction (and not %) and second because it's the wrong answer. The question asks for the fraction of the total seats available were sold to walk ins. That will be 30 walk ins/300 seats available = 30/300 which reduces to 1/10 as a fraction.

To find the number of seats that were not sold for the musical, you can subtract the total number of seats sold from the total number of seats available. In this case, the theater has a capacity of 300 seats.

Number of seats not sold = Total seats available - Total seats sold
Number of seats not sold = 300 - (255 + 30)
Number of seats not sold = 300 - 285
Number of seats not sold = 15

Therefore, 15 seats were not sold for the musical.

To find the fraction of the total seats available for the musical that were sold as walk-in tickets, you can divide the number of walk-ins by the total number of seats.

Fraction of seats sold as walk-ins = Number of walk-ins / Total seats available
Fraction of seats sold as walk-ins = 30 / 300

Simplifying the fraction, we have:
Fraction of seats sold as walk-ins = 1/10

Therefore, 1/10 of the total seats available for the musical were sold as walk-in tickets.

To calculate the amount the theater made from reserved seats, we need to multiply the price of a reserved seat by the number of reserved seats sold.

Amount made from reserved seats = Price of reserved seat x Number of reserved seats sold
Amount made from reserved seats = $12.50 x 255
Amount made from reserved seats = $3187.50

Therefore, the theater made $3187.50 from reserved seats for the musical.
