Answer:

76%

Step-by-step explanation:

So basically 528 represents a full circle and the amount in the circle is 2:5 to that in the stalls.

So you divide 528 by 2 and then multiply it by 5 to get a full stall of 1320

you then add 1320 and 528 to get a full theater of 1848

to get 2/3 of seats in the stall you divide 1320 by 3 and then multiply it by 2 to get 880.

For 2/3 of the stall and a full circle you add 880 and 528 to get 1408.

You divide the amount of people in the theater on Friday by the total amount of people which the theater can hold so 1408 divided by 1848 and you get the percentage of 76%

mixas84 [53]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

We can start by converting 1 into 6/6 and 1/3 into 2/6. This makes subtraction much easier, and by subtracting the numerators, (6/6 - 2/6) you should get 4/6.
