Percentage of tickets sold by different theaters on Friday Total Number of tickets sold on Friday = 850
Out of the number of tickets sold by theatre C, $$ \frac{5}{12} $$were purchased by females and out of the total number of tickets sold by theatre D, $$\frac{1}{17} $$were purchased by females. What was the total number of tickets purchased by females from theatres C and D together?
Total number of tickets sold by theatre C = $$\frac{24}{100} \times 850 = 204$$
=> Tickets purchased by females = $$\frac{5}{12} \times 204 = 85$$
Total number of tickets sold by theatre D = $$\frac{30}{100} \times 850 = 255$$
=> Tickets purchased by females = $$\frac{1}{17} \times 255 = 15$$
$$\therefore$$ Total number of tickets purchased by females from theatres C and D together
