The homecoming dance is going to be held in the school gym which is 300 ft by 300 ft. The fire marshal requires 4

square feet per person. How many tickets can the school sell for the dance?

Respuesta :

Find the area of the gym and divide that by the required space.

Area of gym: 300 x 300 = 90,000 square feet.

Number of people: 90,000 / 4 =  22,500

They can sell 22,500 tickets.

22,500 tickets can be sell by the school for the dance.

What is an area?

Area is the quantity that expresses the extent of a region on the plane or on a curved surface. The area of a plane region or plane area refers to the area of a shape or planar lamina, while surface area refers to the area of an open surface or the boundary of the three-dimensional object.

Now the given dimension of the gym is 300ft by 300ft.

So area of the gym = 300 x 300 ft²

area of the gym = 90,000 ft²

Since fire marshal requires 4 square feet per person.

Therefore,

Number of seats = area of the gym/area require by file marshall

⇒Number of seats = 90,000/4

⇒Number of seats = 22,500

Hence,22,500 tickets can be sell by the school for the dance.
