A movie theater can hold 50 people at a time. They charge $8.00 a ticket. On a Tuesday night they only sold 24 tickets. By not selling out, how much money did they lose?

How much money do they make on a sold-out night? ** The theater can hold 50 people and they charge $8.00 to watch a movie so on a sold-out night they make 50*8 = $<<50*8=400.00>>400.00
How much money did they make on Tuesday night? ** On Tuesday night they only sold 24 tickets at $8.00 apiece so they made 24*8 = $<<24*8=192.00>>192.00
How much money did they lose? ** If they make $400.00 on a sold-out night and they only made $192.00 on Tuesday then they lost 400-192 = $<<400-192=208.00>>208.00
