when 120 guests take seat in an auditorium,only 34 of the seats occupied.what is the total number of seats in the auditorium?
in placs of 34 it will be 3/4 then u can solve it.
Ans. 3/4 portion is 120
so 1 portion 4x120/3
= 160
It would help if you proofread your questions before you posted them. I assume you mean unoccupied. (It would be very difficult for 120 guests to sit in 34 seats!)
120 + 34 = ?
To find the total number of seats in the auditorium, you need to subtract the number of unoccupied seats from the total number of seats available.
The number of occupied seats is given as 34, and the number of guests is given as 120. Therefore, the number of unoccupied seats can be found by subtracting the number of occupied seats from the total number of guests:
Unoccupied seats = Total guests - Occupied seats
Unoccupied seats = 120 - 34
Unoccupied seats = 86
Since the number of unoccupied seats represents the remaining seats, you can find the total number of seats in the auditorium by adding the number of occupied seats to the number of unoccupied seats:
Total seats = Occupied seats + Unoccupied seats
Total seats = 34 + 86
Total seats = 120
Therefore, the total number of seats in the auditorium is 120.
