Refer to the pie chart and answer the given questions.
Percentage of tickets sold by different theaters on Friday Total Number of tickets sold on Friday = 850
The number of tickets sold by theatre B, on Saturday, was 32 more than the number of tickets sold on Friday. The number of tickets sold by theatre E, on Saturday, was 59 more than the number of tickets sold on Friday. What was the respective ratio between the number of tickets sold by theatres B and E on Saturday?
The number of tickets sold by theatre B on Friday = $$\frac{16}{100} \times 850 = 136$$
=> Number of tickets sold by theatre B on Saturday = $$136 + 32 = 168$$
The number of tickets sold by theatre E on Friday = $$\frac{10}{100} \times 850 = 85$$
=> Number of tickets sold by theatre E on Saturday = $$85 + 59 = 144$$
$$\therefore$$ Required ratio = $$\frac{168}{144} = 7 : 6$$
