Question

At an amusement park, 40 percent of the tickets were sold in the first hour. If 800 tickets were sold in the first hour, which equation can be used to find the total number of tickets sold for the entire day?

A.

B.

C.

D.

Answer 1

40% of all tickets=800 tickets; divide by 40%: 800/40%=800*100/40=20*100=2000.

800/2000=(40*20)/(100*20), answer D.
