Problem

Each row of the Misty Moon Amphitheater has 33 seats. Rows 12 through 22 are reserved for a youth club. How many seats are reserved for this club?

$(\mathrm {A}) 297$ $(\mathrm {B}) 330$ $(\mathrm {C}) 363$ $(\mathrm {D}) 396$ $(\mathrm {E}) 726$

Solution

There are 22-12+1=11 rows reserved for the youth club, and at 33 seats per row, there are 33*11 seats reserved.

33*11=363
