Audrey planned a gala to raise money for charities. The tickets to the gala were sold for

$175. 00 each, and a total of 240 people attended the gala. Of those who attended, 5

represented the charities and were given free tickets. It cost $45. 50 a person to produce

the gala. If the profits from the gala were split evenly between 2 charities, how much, in

dollars, was donated to each charity?


Sagot :

The amount in dollars which was donated to each charity is $15,102.5.

What is Amount?

This can be defined as the total number or quantity of a given thing.

We were told it costs $45. 50 each for 240 people

= $45. 50 × 240 = $10,920

Since 5 people were given for free = $175. 00 × 235 = $41,125.

Profit = $41,125 - $10,920 = $30,205

Each charity will therefore collect $30,205/2 = $15,102.5.
