Using simbols order the fractions to find which show had the most viewers in wheelchairs . Use models to prove your conclusions .

Answer 1

total of 20 boxes..

Thursday : 3/5 of the 20 boxes were occupied......3/5 * 20 = 60/5 = 12 boxes were occupied.
Saturday : 7/10 of the 20 boxes were occupied....7/10 * 20 = 140/10 = 14 boxes were occupied

14 > 12.......so Saturday is when the most viewers in wheelchairs showed up
