The difference between the number away fans at the semi final and at the final is: 50 fans

How to interpret the number table?

The number table is given as:

Total Number of Fans Ratio of Home Fans to Away Fans

Semi Final 250 6:4

Final 500 7:3

The number of away fans at the semi final is:

4/(6 + 4) * 250 = 100 fans

The number of away fans at the final is:

3/(7 + 3) * 500 = 150 fans

the difference between the number away fans at the semi final and at the final = 150 - 100 = 50 fans
