Q.

30\%

of the tickets sold at a school carnival were early-admission tickets. If the school sold

40

tickets in all, how many early-admission tickets did it sell?

\newline

_____ early-admission tickets

Calculate Percentage: First, let's figure out what percentage of the total tickets were early-admission tickets. We know that $30\%$ of the tickets sold were early-admission tickets.
Calculate Number of Tickets: Next, we need to calculate how many tickets that $30\%$ represents. There were $40$ tickets sold in total. So, we calculate $30\%$ of $40$ , which is $0.30 \times 40$ .
Final Calculation: Doing the math: $0.30 \times 40 = 12$ . This means $12$ of the tickets sold were early-admission tickets.
