what percent of the tickets were for the saturday performance?
$square$%

Explanation:

Step1: Identify values for percentage

Total tickets = 600, Saturday tickets = 240

Step2: Calculate percentage ratio

$\frac{240}{600} = 0.4$

Step3: Convert decimal to percentage

$0.4 \times 100 = 40$

Step4: Match correct model

The green model (top) divides 600 into 3 parts of 200 each; 240 falls between 200 and 400, which aligns with 40% of 600.

Answer:

Correct model: The top (green) bar model
Percent of Saturday tickets: 40%
