We will use simple division to solve the problem. The number ofrepresentatives attended from each country is 706.
In the given question we know that a political gathering in South America was attended by 8475 people and each 12 territories of South America were equally represented. We need to find out how many representatives attended from each country. Inorder to find the number of representatives we can divide 8475 by 12.
number of representatives= 8475/12 =706
Therefore number of representatives from each country is 706.
