Answer:
107,673
Step-by-step explanation:
Total seating capacity = Number of people who can sit on chairs + number of people who can sit on the benches.
Total Number of people = 217,673
Number of people who can sit on chairs = (Number of chairs) x (Capacity per chair) = 50,000 x 1 = 50,000
Number of people who can sit on the benches = (Number of benches) x (Capacity per bench) = 20,000 x 3 = 60,000
Total Seating capacity = 50,000 + 60,000 = 110,000
People who will stand = 217,673 - 110,000 = 107,673
Hope it helps :)
