Question

A school held several evening activities last month—a music concert, a basketball game, a drama play, and literacy night. The music concert was attended by 250 people. Attendance at a basketball game was 30% of attendance at the concert. How many people attended the concert?

Answer 1

The attendance at the music concert was 250 people and the attendance at the basketball game was approximately 833 people.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how many people attended the music concert, we need to determine the attendance at the basketball game first.

The attendance at the basketball game is 30% of the attendance at the concert, which means 0.30x = the attendance at the basketball game.

If the music concert was attended by 250 people, we can set up the equation as 0.30x = 250, where x represents the attendance at the basketball game.

To solve for x, we divide both sides of the equation by 0.30, and we get x = 250 / 0.30 = 833.33.

So, approximately 833 people attended the basketball game.

Therefore, 250 people attended the music concert.

Answer 2

250 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is mentioned in the question that the number of people who attend the music concert is 250 people

And, the attendance in a basketball game is 30% of concert attendance

Now based on the above information

The people who attended the concert is 250 people as it is already given in the question that 250 people attended the music concert
