Answer:

150 balcony tickets were sold

Step-by-step explanation:

$14 is for one main floor ticket and 500 were sold so you do 14x500 which is 7000 so we know that $900 is left so we do 900 divided by 6 cause it's $6 for a balcony seat and we would get 150 to check it we could do 150x6=900

Hope it helps you!
