Answer:

230 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Create a proportion using the given information:

Let's set x equal to the number of tickets that need to be sold.

[tex]\frac{207}{90} =\frac{x}{100}[/tex]

Cross multiply and you get:

[tex]90x=20700\\[/tex]

Then divide both sides by 90 to get:

[tex]x = 230[/tex]

This means that 230 tickets need to be sold in order to fill all of the seats on the flight.
