Question

4/9 of the crowd gathered for a meeting could be accomodated in a covered space and 10,000 people were there in the open find the total number of people gathered for the meeting​

Answer 1

Answer:

18,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, the total no. of people gathered in the meeting be = x

4/9 of of the crowd = 4x/9

By the problem ,

x = 4x/9 + 10,000

or, x - 4x/9 = 10,000

or, ( 9x - 4x)/9 = 10,000

or, 5x = 10,000 * 9

or, x = 10,000 * 9/5

or, x = 18,000
