Calculate total seats replaced: question_prompt: How many more seats need to be replaced in the theater? $\newline$ Calculate the total number of seats replaced so far: $5$ sections of $236$ seats each plus $1$ section of $348$ seats. $\newline$ $5 \times 236 + 348 = 1180 + 348 = 1528$
Find remaining seats: Subtract the number of seats replaced from the total number of seats to find the remaining seats. $3000 - 1528 = 1472$
Calculate reams sold by Paper Palace: question_prompt: How many reams of paper were sold by all three stores combined? Calculate the number of reams sold by Paper Palace, which is $3$ times the amount sold by Computer Depot. $3 \times 762 = 2286$
