Question

For a school play the teacher asked the class to set up chairs in 20 rows with 25 chairs in each row after setting up all the chairs they were five chairs short how many tears did the class setup

Answer 1

20 rows times 25 chairs in each row minus the 5 left out chairs equals total number of chairs set up.

= (20*25) - 5
= 500 - 5
= 495

They set up 495 chairs.

Hope this helps! :)

Answer 2

495 because 25×20 is 500 but since they were 5 short your answer is 495 because 500-5 =495. Hope it helped
