Question

Answer 1

$people \: present = 540 \\ seats \: occupied = \frac{5}{7} \\ seats \: in \: auditorium = \frac{540 \times 7}{5} =756$

Answer 2

Answer:

There are 756

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of seats occupied= 5/7

Number of people present= 540

Seats in the auditorium= 540/1 x 5/7

                                      = 540 x 7 / 5

                                      = (540 x 7 = 3780) 3780/5

                                      = 756
