Answer:
96 percent of the seats were the tickets sold.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Atlantic auditorium has 850 seats. Tickets were sold for 816 of the seats.
Now, to find percent of the seats of the tickets sold.
Total number of seats = 850.
Tickets sold for the total seats = 816.
So, to find the percent of the seats of the tickets sold:
[tex]\frac{816}{850}\times 100[/tex]
[tex]=0.96\times 100[/tex]
[tex]=96\%.[/tex]
Therefore, 96 percent of the seats were the tickets sold.
