Based on the information provided, it follows that there are 1,728 possible seating arrangements.
<h3>How can we find the number of possible arrangements?</h3>
To find the number of arrangements in this problem situation we must take into account the following key factors:
- Chris only has 1 possible seat.
- Jo has 2 possible seats.
- Dave, Alex, and Barb have 3 possible seats.
- Gareth, Fred, and Eddie have 3 possible seats.
- There are 4 other adults who do not have a preference in seats but have the possibility of using 4 seats.
According to the above, we must use the factorization of these numbers to find out the number of possibilities we have to seat them.
<h3>What is factoring?</h3>
A factorial function is a mathematical tool that is characterized by using the exclamation mark “!” behind a number. The factorial function is used to express that the number accompanied by the symbol must be multiplied by all positive integers between that number and 1.
In accordance with the above, in the problem situation that we must solve, we must use the factorial function with the possibilities of:
- Dave, Alex and Barb: 3! = 3 × 2 × 1 = 6
- Gareth, Fred and Eddie: 3! = 3 × 2 × 1 = 6
- Other 4 adults: 4! = 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 = 24
Subsequently, to calculate the number of total possibilities of the entire group we must multiply the possibilities of each group and individual as shown below:
- Number of possibilities = 1 × 2 × 6 × 6 × 24
- Number of possibilities = 1728

I think the answer is "the denominator"
You're nearly there. Just some more steps.
557 * x = 594 tells us
x = 594 / 557 (divide both sides by 557)
x ≈ 1.066427
When we've found this number we must realise the following:
the '1' in this answer is the 100% the car fixing costs (without taxes)
the '0.66427' stands for the tax rate.
To find the tax rate we multiply 0.66427 by 100, which gives us:
0.66427 * 100 = 6.6427 ≈ 7
So, rounded to the nearest %, the tax rate is 7%
Should be 7 if not then sorry
