Answer:
The theater sold a higher ratio of Senior tickets to Adult tickets on the first night.
Step-by-step explanation:
Rate of senior tickets to adult tickets:
Can also be interpreted as the percentage of senior tickets, out of the number of total tickets, which is the number of senior tickets multiplied by 100% and divided by the number of total tickets.
The first night, 19 Senior tickets and 57 Adult tickets were sold.
19 out of 19 + 57 = 76. So
19*100%/76 = 25%
The second night, 20 Senior tickets and 62 Adult tickets were sold.
20 out of 20 + 62 = 82. So
20*100%/82 = 24.39%
25% > 24.39%, so the theater sold a higher ratio of Senior tickets to Adult tickets on the first night.
