Tickets for a theme park were sold at $21 and $75. All the tickets were completely sold out. The amount collected for the $75 tickets was $24600. Given that the number of $75 tickets was
213 of the number of $21 tickets, how much more money was collected from the sales of the $21 ticket than the $75 ticket?

13 u |
2 u |
Value |
$21 |
$150 |
Total value |
273 u |
150 u |
Total amount collected for the $75 ticket = 150 u
150 u = 24600
1 u = 24600 ÷ 150 = 164
More money collected from the sales of the $21 ticket than the $75 ticket
= 273 u - 75 u
= 123 u
= 123 x 164
= $20172
Answer: $20172
