All 3,000 seats in a movie theater are being replaced. So far,5 sections of 136 seats and a sixth section containing 348 seats have been replaced. How many more seats do they still need to replace?
The correct answer is:
1972
Explanation:
5 sections of 136 seats have been replaced; this is 5(136) = 680 seats.
The sixth section with 348 seats has also been replaced; this makes 680+348 = 1028 seats.
There are 3000 seats; this leaves 3000-1028 = 1972 seats remaining.
The number of seats that should be replaced is 1,972.
Given that,
So, the number of seats replaced should be
= 3,000 - (5 × 136) - 348
= 3,000 - 680 - 348
= 1,972
Therefore we can conclude that the number of seats that should be replaced is 1,972.
