Aschool baseball team earned $3416.90 from selling 5716 tickets to their game. if grandstand tickets sold for 65 cents each and bleacher tickets sold for 40 cents each, how many of the bleacher tickets were sold?

If all were grandstand tickets, revenue would be 0.65*5716 = 3715.40. It was actually 298.50 less than that. Each bleacher ticket sold drops the revenue by .25, so there were 298.50/.25 = 1194 bleacher tickets sold.

One shot. if 60% of 10 is 6, then what is 70%? we know it would be seven (since 60% is mathematically 60/100, or 6/10, then 70% is 70/100, or 7/10) but we can check anyway using ratios: 6 : 60% = x : 70%*inverse multiplicationx * 60% = 6 * 70%*divide both sides by 60%x = (6 * 70%) / 60%x = 7and since he has made 6 shots already, he would need just one more to get 7 shots or 70%. if the explanation is too confusing, comment and i will try to
