A downtown auditorium hosts large events. The auditorium can seat 600 people at one time. The sponsors of an awards dinner are using the auditorium for 450 people. The chef has prepared meals for 3/4 of the usual 600 people. The pastry chef has made enough dessert for 5/8 of the usual 600 people. The staff has set up 3/5of the usual
600 chairs. When the guests arrive, will everybody have a place to sit? Will there be enough meals? Enough dessert? Explain your mathematical thinking
Meals: 0.75 * 600 = 450
Deserts: 0.625 * 600 = 375
Chairs: 0.6 * 600 = 360
There was less Desserts and less chairs
Idk its hard and confusingggg
its hard :((
Suficientes meals pero ni postres ni sillas
To determine if there will be enough seating, meals, and dessert for everyone, we need to compare the number of guests and the actual quantities provided.
First, let's calculate the number of guests:
Given that the sponsors are using the auditorium for 450 people, we have our answer.
Seating:
The auditorium can seat 600 people, but they are only using it for 450 people. So, there is enough seating for everyone.
Meals:
The chef has prepared meals for 3/4 of the usual 600 people. To find the number of meals prepared, we multiply 3/4 by 600:
(3/4) * 600 = 450 meals
Since there are 450 guests, and 450 meals are prepared, there will be enough meals for everyone.
Dessert:
The pastry chef has made enough dessert for 5/8 of the usual 600 people. To find the number of desserts prepared, we multiply 5/8 by 600:
(5/8) * 600 = 375 desserts
Since there are 450 guests and only 375 desserts prepared, there will not be enough dessert for everyone.
In summary, there will be enough seating and meals for all the guests. However, there will not be enough dessert for everyone.
