Question

Attendance dropped 6% this year to 300 what was the attendance before the drop?

Answer 1

Answer:

approx 4,130

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer this we have to multiply the attendance before the drop (x) by the percentage that assisted after the drop ( 1-0.08) . That expression must be equal to the attendance after the drop (3800)

Mathematically speaking:

8% = 8/100 = 0.08 (decimal form)

x (1-0.08)= 3800

x (0.92) =3800

Solving for x

x = 3800/0.92

x= 4,130
