Question

There were 22,180 seats in a stadium. There are 85 sections with an equal number of seats in each and the remaining seats are floor level. How many seats are on the floor?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There are multiple solutions.

If each section has n seats, the floor has 22,180-85n seats.

22,180/85 ≅ 260.9, so each section has at most 260 seats.

If each section has 260 seats, the floor has 22,180-85×260 = 80.

Answer 2

The number of seats in the floor is 80.
