Question

A cinema has 37 rows of seats 23 seats in each row adult tickets are £8 each child tickets are £6 the cinema has sold tickets for every seat the manager estimates that's £6400 was raised from these tickets 200 child tickets were sold. Check whether the managers estimate was close to the exact amount of money raised

Answer 1

Answer:

Yes, the estimated amount of money at 6,400 was close since the actual amount of money made was 6,408.

Step-by-step explanation:

37 × 23 = 851 (total amount of seats)

851 - 200 = 651 (amount of adult seats sold)

200 × 6 = 1,200 (money recieved from selling child seats)

651 × 8 = 5,208 (money received for selling adult seats)

1,200 + 5,208 = 6,408 (all money earned in total)

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

total number of seats=37×23=851

adult seats=851-200=651

money raised for adults=651×8=5208

money raised from 200 child tickets=200×6=1200

total amount raised=5208+1200=6408

actually raised money=6400

which is close to exact money.
