The stadium capacity allows for players, radio and newspaper reporters, and stadium workers in addition to spectators. How many of these people could be at a game?


Victory Stadium:
Stadium Capacity - 42,500
General Admission Seating - 31,750
Reserved Seating - 10,475
Please answer and explain

No. I do not get how you subtracted.

To determine the number of people that could be at a game in Victory Stadium, we need to consider the different groups of people involved: players, radio and newspaper reporters, stadium workers, and spectators.

Given the information provided, we know that Victory Stadium has a total capacity of 42,500. This capacity includes all the different groups mentioned.

To calculate the maximum number of people that could be at a game, we need to subtract the number of spectators (since they are included in the stadium capacity) from the total capacity.

First, let's calculate the number of spectators by adding the general admission seating capacity to the reserved seating capacity:

General Admission Seating - 31,750
Reserved Seating - 10,475

Total Spectator Capacity = General Admission Seating + Reserved Seating
= 31,750 + 10,475
= 42,225

Now, subtract the total spectator capacity from the stadium capacity to find the number of people from the other groups (players, reporters, and stadium workers):

Number of other people = Stadium Capacity - Total Spectator Capacity
= 42,500 - 42,225
= 275

Therefore, there could be 275 players, radio and newspaper reporters, and stadium workers in addition to the spectators at a game in Victory Stadium.

42,500 - 31,750 - 10,475 = ?

Can you explain this?
