Question

A concert is being held in a gymnasium that can hold no more than 450 people. The bleachers seat 60 people. There will also be 26 rows of chairs set up. At most, how many people can sit in each row?

Answer 1

At most, 15 people can sit in each row.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Number of people hold by gymnasium = 450

Bleachers seats = 60

Seats in rows = Total - Bleachers seats

Seats in rows = 450 - 60 = 390

Number of rows = 26

Let,

x be the number of people that can sit in each row.

26x ≤ 390

Dividing both sides by 26

$\frac{26x}{26}\leq \frac{390}{26}\\x=15$

At most, 15 people can sit in each row.
