Question

At a cricket test match 2/7 of the spectators were in a covered place while 15000 were in open. Find the total number of spectators

Answer 1

hope this answer may help you

Answer 2

1st method

Let, the number=x

Then, the spectors=2/7x

Therefore,

X-2/7x=15000

7x-2x/7=15000

5x=15000*7

X=15000*7/5

X=2100

2nd method

Let, the number=x

Then, the spectors=2/7x

2/7x+15000=x

2/7x - x= -15000

2x-7x/7= - 15000

-5x/7= -15000

-5x= -15000*7

X= - 15000*7/-5

X=2100

I hope you understood. Don't copy plz stood then you solve

Thanks
