If all 100 tickets were sold at R800, the sales total would be 100 * 800 or R80000.
\n" ); document.write( "The actual total is R65000. R80000 - R65000 = R15000
\n" ); document.write( "The difference in price between R800 and R500 is R300.
\n" ); document.write( "R15000 / R300 = 50 tickets
\n" ); document.write( "50 tickets at R500 = R25000
\n" ); document.write( "50 tickets at R800 = R40000
\n" ); document.write( "R25000 + R40000 = R65,000
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
