A cinema has 3 screens. last saturday there were 500 visitors

40% went to screen 1

25% went to screen 2

the rest to screen 3

work out how many visitors attended each screen

200 screen 1

125 screen 2

175 screen 3

Distribution of 500 visitors = 100% attendees.

We remove a zero to find 1/10th. By converting 500 } 50/10 = 10 x 50

Step-by-step explanation:

when you add up; 40/10 + 25/10 = 4.0 + 2.5

and show 7.5 is the same as a + b + 1 x 100

and above 7.5 = 175/100 = 1.75

Or use the counter x = multiply by 50

40/10 + 25/10 = 6.5

6.5-10 = 3.5

x = 3.5 x 50

For this last one we can pose new question where 300 visitors was the original total then create new data for new question.

where x = multiply by 30 and create all to tenths etc.

We subtract the shown tenths only to find the total

Then same will apply above with new data.
