The total seating capacity is 504.

Given: There are 216 people in the hall and it is occupied with 3/7 of its total capacity.

To Find: The total seating capacity.

Solution:

Let the total seating capacity be 'x'.

Fraction of the seating capacity occupied = 3 / 7

So, the number of people present = 3x / 7

The number of people in the hall = 216

From the above information, we can form an equation;

              3x / 7 = 216

          ⇒ 3x = 216 × 7

          ⇒  x  =  ( 216 × 7 ) / 3

                   = 504

Hence, the total seating capacity is 504.
