document.write( "Question 928372: The local theater has three types of seats for Broadway plays: main floor, balcony and mezzanine. Main floor tickets are $43, balcony tickets are $35, and mezzanine tickets are $27. On one particular night the sales totaled $45,839. Main floor sales were 71 more than the total of balcony and mezzanine sales. Balcony seats were 303 more than 3 times mezzanine sales. How many of each type of ticket were sold?
