A theater has 500 seats. Three fourths of the seats are filled. How many seats are filled?
in math, "of" means multiplication
half of 10 is 5 ... 1/2 * 10
So, 3/4 * 500 = 375
Thx for the answer ☺️
thx Oobleck
To find out how many seats are filled, we need to calculate three-fourths of the total number of seats in the theater, which is 500.
Step 1: Calculate three-fourths of 500.
To calculate three-fourths of a number, we multiply the number by 3/4 or 0.75 (since 3/4 is the same as 0.75).
500 x 0.75 = 375
Therefore, three-fourths of the 500 seats in the theater are filled. Therefore, 375 seats are filled.
