The movie theater sold 345 tickets to a show. If 2/3 of the tickets sold were adult tickets, which cost $13.95 each, how much money did the theater make from the sale of children’s tickets if they cost 2/3 of the amount of adult tickets? Answer with a dollar amount rounded to the nearest hundredth, placing commas in appropriate places...
The number of adult tickets sold is (2/3)*345 = <<(2/3)*345=230>>230 tickets
If each adult ticket cost $13.95, the 230 adult tickets cost 230*13.95 = $<<230*13.95=3208.5>>3208.5
If a child ticket cost 2/3 of the amount of an adult ticket, the child ticket cost 2/3*13.95 = $<<2/3*13.95=9.3>>9.3
To get the money made from children's tickets, multiply the cost per child ticket by the total number of child tickets sold. Since there were 345-230 = <<345-230=115>>115 child tickets sold, the theater made 9.3*115 = $<<9.3*115=1069.50>>1069.50 from the sale of children’s tickets. Answer: \boxed{1,069.50}.
