Total amount paid for tickets in the two hours =  $10,237.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Ist Hour, 280 tickets were sold at the cost of $16.25

Amount of money made in the first hour= Number of people who purchased ticket  x price of a ticket

=280 x 16.25 =$4,550

2nd Hour, 25 % more people purchased ,

which means the total number of people who purchased tickets =

1.25 x 280= 350

Amount of money made in second hour =  Number of people who purchased ticket  x price of a ticket 350 x 16.25 =$5,687.5
