Default Exhibition query

I have landed an exhibition, my first, and now I suddenly have a lot of questions that I never really have thought about so I wonder if there is anyone out there who could help me!
My main query is how does it work when (or if!) I sell an exhibited photo, how many copies can I sell of each and how is the price related to the number of copies sold? Is there a general rule that I could apply?
Thanks a lot and if there is someone who wants to share their own experience on this subject and who could give me a few tips, I would be forever grateful!

The price and quantity of your prints are set by you, perhaps with some advice from the gallery where it will be shown. Does the gallery get a percentage of the sale price? Unless otherwise stipulated, prints sold without comment as to being of a limited edition run may be reproduced as you desire. Don't sell yourself short and "give" your work away by setting too low a price. Let us know how it works out.

The gallery owner might be able to help you out as well. They should have a good idea what the local market is like.
