Question

If 2 out of 36 people applaude, and 10 people in a concert hall are applauding,

how many people are in the concert hall?

A. 360
B. 180
C. 144
D. 55

Answer 1

180 people

Explanation:

First, you need to figure out the quotient of 10 and 2. Which would be 5. After that, you multiply 2 and 36 by 5 to find your answer. It would leave you with the ratio 10:180. So therefore your answer would be 180. :)

Answer 2

it should be B

Explanation:

10/2 = 5

5 * 36 = 180 people
