Theatre sold 343 tickets on Friday. This is 192 fewer tickets than those sold on Saturday. How many tickets were sold alltogether

343+192=tickets sold on Saturday

Total tickets = tickets sold on Saturday + 343

343 + (343 + 192) = ?

Let's find the number of tickets sold on Saturday first.

Let's assume the number of tickets sold on Saturday is "x".

According to the given information, the number of tickets sold on Friday is 192 tickets fewer than those sold on Saturday.

So, the number of tickets sold on Friday is:

x - 192

The total number of tickets sold is the sum of the tickets sold on Friday and Saturday:

342 + x - 192 = 342 + x - 192
= x

Therefore, the total number of tickets sold altogether is "x".

To find the total number of tickets sold, we need to add together the tickets sold on Friday and Saturday.

Let's assume the number of tickets sold on Saturday is S. According to the given information, the number of tickets sold on Friday is 192 fewer than those sold on Saturday. So we can express this as:

Friday tickets = Saturday tickets - 192

Given that the theatre sold 343 tickets on Friday, we can substitute this value into the equation:

343 = S - 192

To solve for S, we need to isolate it on one side of the equation. Let's add 192 to both sides:

343 + 192 = S - 192 + 192
535 = S

Therefore, the number of tickets sold on Saturday (S) is 535.

To find the total number of tickets sold, we add the tickets sold on Friday (343) and Saturday (535):

Total tickets sold = 343 + 535
Total tickets sold = 878

So, the total number of tickets sold altogether is 878.
