Answer:

1208

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 18 sections that have 478 seats each:

478 * 18 = 8604

If there are 39 sections in total, there are 21 remaining which have 292 seats each:

292 * 21 = 6132

To find the total number of seats, add the numbers:

8604 + 6132 = 14736

To find the number of empty seats, subtract the number of filled seats from the total seats:

14736 - 13528 = 1208
