Here is the corrected solution for part c) and the information regarding question 3:

c) To find the total number of tickets available, we use percentages.

Identify the given information.
Tickets sold = 48,000
This represents 80% of the total available tickets.
Set up the equation.
Let $T$ be the total number of tickets.
$80\% \text{ of } T = 48,000$ $0.80 \times T = 48,000$
Solve for $T$ .
$T = \frac{48,000}{0.80}$ $T = 60,000$
The total number of tickets that were available for the tournament is $\boxed{\text{60,000 tickets}}$ .
