taining 48 chairs each ....
1) 10 2)20 3) 30 4) 40​

Answer 1

There are 48 chairs in each row. After arranging them in rows, no. of rows =

$1000 \div 48 = 20.833$

It means that 20 rows are completely filled. No. of chairs in these 20 rows =

$20 \times 48 = 960$

So, no. of chairs left =

$1000 - 960 = 40$

or if you solve 1000/48 by long division, you will get remainder 40, which is equal to the number of chairs left.

Answer 2

Answer:

48

Step-by-step explanation:

1000÷48=20.833

20×48=960

1000-960=40
