2) In a restaurant, each table can accommodate 6 people. In total there are 12 tables. If all the chairs are occupied, how many people are sitting in the restaurant? Draw a diagram to represent the problem and translate it into a repeated addition or multiplication. Use the scheme to find the result of the addition and solve the problem. Diagram Operation and solution
The diagram would show 12 tables, each with 6 chairs.
The repeated addition representation would be: 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6.
To find the result of the addition, we can multiply the number of tables by the number of chairs per table: 12 x 6.
The solution is 72.
To represent the problem with a diagram, we can draw 12 tables labeled with numbers from 1 to 12. Each table can accommodate 6 people, so we can draw 6 chairs at each table. To solve the problem, we can use repeated addition or multiplication.
Diagram:
Table 1: [x x x x x x]
Table 2: [x x x x x x]
Table 3: [x x x x x x]
Table 4: [x x x x x x]
Table 5: [x x x x x x]
Table 6: [x x x x x x]
Table 7: [x x x x x x]
Table 8: [x x x x x x]
Table 9: [x x x x x x]
Table 10: [x x x x x x]
Table 11: [x x x x x x]
Table 12: [x x x x x x]
Translation into repeated addition:
6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6
Using the repeated addition:
6 x 12 = 72
Therefore, there are 72 people sitting in the restaurant when all the chairs are occupied.
