Answer 1

314 of the people attending the fun fair are people living in the neighborhood

Explanation:

1. Let's review the data given to us for solving the question:

Number of people attending the fun fair = 2,512

Fraction of people attending the fun fair that are students = 5/8

Fraction of people attending the fun fair that are parents = 1/4

Rest of the people attending the fun fair lives in the neighborhood

2. Let's calculate the number of students, parents and people living in the neighborhood

Students:

Fraction of people attending the fun fair that are students = 5/8

5/8 * 2,512 = 1,570

1,570 of the people attending the fun fair are students

Parents:

Fraction of people attending the fun fair that are parents = 1/4

1/4 * 2,512 = 628

628 of the people attending the fun fair are parents

People living in the neighborhood

2,512 - 1,570 - 628 = 314

314 of the people attending the fun fair are people living in the neighborhood
