Question

a concert promoter had hoped to schedule a show at a 21,000-seat sports arena. unfortunately, scheduling conflicts forced the concert to be moved to the local civic center. which has 35% smaller seating capacity. how many fewer tickets will the promoter be able to sell with the concert held at the civic center

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

if there is a 35% less seating capacity, then only 65% can fit in there

0.65(21,000) = 13,650....this is how many people that can fit in there

how many fewer tickets will the promoter be able to sell ?

21,000 - 13,650 = 7350 <=== he will be able to sell 7350 fewer tickets

Answer 2

Answer:

divide 21,000 by 35% then subtract

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 21000 / 35 = 600

2. 21000 - 600 = 20400
