Answer:
The number of seats filled is 375 out of 500 seats
Solution:
A theater has 500 seats. Three fourths of the seats are filled.
We have to calculate the number of seats filled in theater
Total number of seats in a theater =500
Let the number of seats filled is “x”.
Three fourth of the seats are filled. This can be represented as,
Number of filled seat =
![(3)/(4)x * 500](https://img.qammunity.org/2020/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/o3wqgonwgbhf3cehq4jg0gwdfy91u6p6gl.png)
Divide the 500 by 4 we will get the answer is 125
Finally multiply 125 by 3
= 3
125 = 375
Hence the Number of seats filled in theater is 375 out of 500 seats
