1/8 of 32,096 were seniors → or 32,096/8 = 4,012 seniors

1/8 of 32,096 were infants → or 32,096/8 = 4,012 infants

1/4 of 32,096 were children → 32,096/4 = 8,024 children

1/2 of 32,096 were adults → 32,096/2 = 16,048 adults

Answer:

4012 of senior citizens, 4012 of infants, 8024 of children, 16048 of adults

Explanation:

We have given total of 32,096 people

Now, we need to find how many of each group visited the zoo on saturday.


(1)/(8) were senior citizens visited zoo on saturday means
(1)/(8)\cdot 32096=4012

Now,
(1)/(8) were infants means
(1)/(8)\cdot 32096=4012

Now,
(1)/(4) were children means
(1)/(4)\cdot 32096=8024

Now,
(1)/(2) were adults means
(1)/(2)\cdot 32096=16048
