Hello there! The answer is 0.5s + 24 = f.
To solve, let's analyze the question. According to the question, There were "24 more than half the number of fans".
To start, we notice we have "24 more than". This means we are adding 24, so we will use + 24 in the equation. The words "more than" indicate that the + 24 will go after the other part of the equation.
Next, we have " half the number of fans" to model this, we can use 0.5s (s stands for Saturday, since that's from Saturday's game). We can put this in front of the + 24 and get 0.5s + 24.
Since we are modeling the equation for Friday's game, we can put = f at the end to show that that's what the equation gives us, the number of fans at Friday's game. Adding that onto the equation, we have 0.5s + 24. = f as our final equation.
I hope this was helpful, and have a great rest of your day! :)
