Answer:
3800 tickets sold
Step-by-step explanation:
We know the number of people seated, and we know the percentage of total ticket sales that represents. So, we can find the total number of tickets sold.
seated + not-arrived = total sold
228 + 0.94 × total sold = total sold
228 = 0.06 × total sold . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 0.94 × total sold
228/0.06 = total sold = 3800
There were 3800 tickets sold for the performance.
