Solution

To solve this problem, we need to follow these steps:

  1. First, we need to find out how much money was collected in the first 7 days. We know that 290 tickets were sold on average each day for 7 days, so we multiply 290 tickets/day * 7 days = 2030 tickets.

  2. Then, we multiply the number of tickets sold in the first 7 days by the price of each ticket to find out the total collection for the first 7 days. So, 2030 tickets * 28/ticket=28/ticket = 56,840.

  3. Now, we subtract the total collection of the first 7 days from the total collection of the 8 days to find out how much money was collected on the 8th day. So, 64,82064,820 - 56,840 = $7,980.

  4. Finally, we divide the total collection of the 8th day by the price of each ticket to find out how many tickets were sold on the 8th day. So, 7,980/7,980 / 28/ticket = 285 tickets.

Therefore, 285 people watched on the 8th day.
