Question

A theatre has the capacity to seat people across two levels the circle and the stalls

Answer 1

Answer: 76%

Step-by-step explanation:

So basically 528 represents a full circle and the amount in the circle is 2:5 to that in the stalls.

So you divide 528 by 2 and then multiply it by 5 to get a full stall of 1320

you then add 1320 and 528 to get a full theatre of 1848

to get 2/3 of seats in the stall you divide 1320 by 3 and then multiply it by 2 to get 880.

For 2/3 of the stall and a full circle you add 880 and 528 to get 1408.

You divide the amount of people in the theatre on Friday by the total amount of people which the theatre can hold so 1408 divided by 1848 and you get the percentage of 76%

Answer 2

Answer:

76%

Step-by-step explanation:

Stalls=880

Circle=528

(Friday) Total: 1408

528÷2=264×7=1848 (528 divided by 2/7 which is 1848)

1320÷3=440×2=880(1320 divided by 2/3 to get 880)

880+528=1408(Total Occupany on Friday)

1848 is the total the theatre can hold, you then round the decimal to 2 significant figures and you will get 76%

1408 divided by 1848=0.7619047619=76% to 2 significant figures.
