or, since multiplication is distributive,
(.90+1.06+0.86)*50 = 141.00
(.90+1.06+0.86)*50 = 141.00

On the first day, the members earned 90% of their daily goal, which is 0.9 x $50.00 = $45.00.
On the second day, the members earned 6% more than their daily goal, which is 1.06 x $50.00 = $53.00.
On the third day, the members earned 14% less than their daily goal, which is 0.86 x $50.00 = $43.00.
Therefore, the total amount earned from ticket sales on all three days is $45.00 + $53.00 + $43.00 = $141.00.
On the second day, the members earned 6% more than their daily goal, which is 1.06 x $50.00 = $53.00.
On the third day, the members earned 14% less than their daily goal, which is 0.86 x $50.00 = $43.00.
Therefore, the total amount earned from ticket sales on all three days is $45.00 + $53.00 + $43.00 = $141.00.
