Question

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?

Answer 1

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.

Answer 2

The number of seats that should be replaced is 1,972.

Given that,

• There are 3,000 seats in the movie theater.
• 5 section of 136 seats and 6th section comprise of 348 seats should be replaced.

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.
