Answer:

floor seats=35

and the balcony seats =72

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one

given data

let the floor seats be x

and the balcony seats be y

so

45x+25y=3375-------1

x+y= 107----------------2

from 2, x= 107-y

put x= 107-y in  1

45(107-y)+25y=3375

4815-45y+25y=3375

collect like terms

-45y+25y= 3375-4815

-20y=-1440

divide both sides by -20

y=72

put y= 72 in eqn 2

x+72=107

x=107-72

x=35
