1 answer:
Answer:
The entire floor can contain approximately 4178 fans
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step is to calculate the area of the basketball floor.
we can do this by multiplying the length by the breadth as such 94 X 50 = 4700 square feet.
The second step is to calculate the area occupied by 8 of the fans. We can do this by multiplying 3 ft by 3ft = 9 square feet.
From this, it will be easier to estimate the area occupied by only one fan. This can be got by dividing 9 square feet by 8.
This is = 1.125 square feet.
To get the number of students it can occupy, we divide the total area of the court by the area occupied by one student.
4700/ 1.125 =4177.8 4178 fans
