Answer:

50,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a proportion:

6/1500 = 200/x

Cross multiply and solve for x:

200x1500 = 6x

300000 = 6x

50000 = x

Answer:

50000

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the "unit rate" for occupancy:  

1500 ft²

------------- = 250 ft²/person

6 people

Now multiply this unit rate by 200 people.  "people" drops out, and you are left with

250 ft²

--------------- * 200 people = 50,000 ft²

1 person

Enter 50000.  200 people will need 50000 ft² of housing.
