On Monday, the theater club sells 14 tickets for the school play. On Tuesday, they sell 10 tickets. On those two days, they sell 30% of the total number of tickets. What is the total number of tickets?

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

number of tickets sold

monday=14

tuesday=10

the number of tickets sold for Monday and Tuesday combined is

14+10= 24

step two:

we want to find how many tickets make 30%

so 30/100*24

0.3*24

=7.2 tickets,

Approximately 7 ticket

Therefore the total ticket is

14+10+7

=31 tickets
