Respuesta :

Answer:

There were 4 adults; including Mr. Torres

Step-by-step explanation:

- Each row in the stadium had 9 seats

- Mr. Torres sat by himself; he sat on a row with nobody else (no students, no adults)

- The arrangement of the students and the adults who sat with them on same row is:   A  S  S  S  A  S  S  S  A

              1   2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9

since 1 adult sat at each end of a/the row and each group of 3 students was seated between 2 adults.

So the total number of adults that were present = 3 + 1 = 4
