Question

There are four movies showing at the movie theatre. 2/3 of the people bought comedy, 1/4 bought tickets for horror movie, and 3/10 bought tickets for the kids movie what fraction represents the number of people who bought tickets for the action movie

Answer 1

The fraction of people for 4th movie is 0.1167

Explanation:

The number of people that bought a comedy movie ticket = 2/3

The number of people that bought the horror movie ticket = 1/4

The number of people that bought kids movie ticket = 3/10

Total number people for three movies = 2/3 + ¼ + 3/10 = 0.8833

The fraction of people for 4th movie = 1 – 0.8833 = 0.1167
