a football match, the ratio of children to adults is 2:7.there are 2700 people int he crowd. each adult ticket is £8 each child ticket costs £3 less than an adult ticket . work out the total money made from ticket sales

Step-by-step explanation:

since the ratio of children to adult is 2:7,

2+7 = 9

number of children would be

(2 × 2700)/9 = 600 children in the crowd

number of adults would be

(7 × 2700)/9 = 2100 adults in the crowd

So, if a ticket costs £8 per adults, total cash made from adult

= 8 × 2100 = £16800

if a ticket costs £(8 - 3) per children, total cash made from children

= 5 × 600 = £3000

total money made = £(16800 + 3000)

= £19800

hey! so 1 (25) out of 4 (100) is 25 so your answer is 25%. it's like quarters!
