Question

2,753 people go to a concert and tickets cost $5 each. If it costs $8,000 to put on the concert, how much money was made?

Answer 1

Money made by tickets=

2753 x $5 = $13765

We have to subtract the cost of the concert from the money made by tickets to get our profit. Therefore,

$13765 - $8000 = $5765

Answer 2

5765 was made, if you do 2753(5)-8000 you get 5765
