A theater has 500 seats. Three fourths of the seats are filled. How many seats are filled?? Show work
Here is the correct answer. Please don't copy and paste.
The first step is to convert three fourths into a decimal.
In order to do so, I need to divide the numerator and the denominator.
3 รท 4 = 0.75
Now we need to multiply 0.75 by 500 because 0.75 were the number of seats filled and 500 was the number of seats.
0.75 x 500 = 375
So 375 seats are filled.
Hope this Helps!
