there are 300 tickets available at a concert.50% of the tickets were sold for $5,30% were sold for $10 and the rest were sold for $20.How much was collected in total?

Answer provided by our tutors

50% of the tickets were sold for $5


50% of 300 is 0.50*300 = 150 tickets and the money collected 150*5 = $750


30% were sold for $10


30% 0f 300 is 0.30*300 = 90 tickets and the money collected 90*10 = $900


the rest were sold for $20


300 - (0.50*300 + 0.30*300) = 300 (1 - 0.8) = 60 tickets and the money collected 60*20 = $1200


the total money collected is


750 + 900 + 1200 = $2,850
