Question

There were 96 students and 34 adults at the concert. If 65% of the seats were filled, how many seats are in the auditoriom? Round your answer to the nearest whole percent

Answer 1

Answer: 200 seats

Explanation:

There are 96 students and 34 adults in a concert. The total number of people present is therefore:

= 96 + 34

= 130 people

These 130 people only fill 65% of the seats. Assume the total number of seats is x:

130 = 65% * x

x = 130/65%

x = 200 seats
