Jump straight to . . .
Statements 1 and 2 combined
The combined statements tell us that 100 tickets sold for the full price of $25 each.
The remaining 300 tickets were sold at some reduced price.
Since we don't know the reduced price, there's no way to determine the total revenue from the sale of the 400 tickets
The combined statements are NOT SUFFICIENT
Answer: E
