Answers
Answer:
337657.5 AED
Step-by-step explanation:
VIP seats=750*2/15=100
So other seats are 750-100=650
2/5 of VIP seats=100*2/5=40
collection of 40 vip seats=40*875.5=35020 AED
11/13 of 650 other seats=650*11/13=550
collection of 550 seats=550*550.25=302637.5
Total collection= 35020+302637.5
=337657.5 AED
Answer:
The total money collected from both the VIP and the ordinary seats on that particular day is 337657.50 AED.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1 : Calculate the number of seats of each type - the ordinary and the VIP seats.
The VIP seats = 2/15 × 750 = 100 seats.
The ordinary seats = the remaining seats = 750 - 100 = 650 seats.
Step 2 : Calculate the seats occupied on that particular day.
VIP seats = 2/5 × 100 = 40 seats.
Ordinary seats = 11/13 × 650 = 550 seats.
Step 3 : Calculate the money collected on the sale of each type.
VIP seats = 40 × 875.50 = 35020 AED.
Ordinary seats = 550 × 550.25 = 302637.5 AED
Step 4 : Calculate the total money collected from both types.
302637.5 AED + 35020 AED = 337657.50 AED.
