Question

A baseball stadium has 45,000 seats. If tickets have been bought for 5/8 of the seats for the next game, how many seats are still available to buy?

Answer 1

Answer:

Number of seats available is 16875

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given

total number of seats =45000

so, N=45000

If tickets have been bought for 5/8 of the seats for the next game

So, total seats booked is

$=\frac{5}{8}\times 45000$

$=28125$

now, we can find number of seats available

Number of seats available = (Total number of seats)-(Number of seats occupied)

so, we get

Number of seats available is

=45000-28125

=16875
