Question

9. A picture hall has seats for 820 persons. At a recent film show, one usher guessed it was
$\frac{3}{4}$
full, another that it was
$\frac{2}{3}$
full. The ticket office reported 648 sales. Which usher (first or second) made the better guess? ​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

occupancy is 648 out of 820

That is

$\frac{648}{820} = 0.79$

$\frac{2}{3} = .6 \\ \frac{3}{4} = .75$

hence the first user made better guess
