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
If the total number of tickets sold by all the theatres together on Friday was 70% more than that sold on Thursday, what was the total number of tickets sold by all the theatres together on Thursday?
Total number of tickets sold by all the theatres together on Friday = 850
Let total number of tickets sold by all the theatres together on Thursday = $$100x$$
Acc. to ques, => $$100x + \frac{70}{100} \times 100x = 850$$
=> $$100x + 70x = 170x = 850$$
=> $$x = \frac{850}{170} = 5$$
$$\therefore$$ Total number of tickets sold by all the theatres together on Thursday = $$100 \times 5 = 500$$
