Question

The AKG auditorium had a show on saturday with full capacity. The total collection of the ticket sale was Rs.73,500. Each ticket cost Rs.50. As 30 people were admitted as invitees, they did not have to buy the tickets. Find the seating capacity of the hall?

Answer 1

Firstly we need to divide 73,500 and 50 to know the no. of people who paid the tickets and watched the show. 73500÷50=1470. Now, 30 people were invitees, so 1470+30=1500.
1500 is your answer.

Answer 2

So we have to divide the money of all tickets with cost of one ticket so73500/50=1470 , then we have to add the 30 people that is 1470+ 30 =1500
