A new movie was released over the weekend with 8 show times. 124 people saw the movie during the first 2 show times. If people come to the movie at the same rate, how many saw it over the weekend?

Sagot :

Answer:

496 people

Step-by-step explanation:

If 124 people attend 2 show times, in 8 show times (8 is four times of 2 show times; 8 / 2 = 4) there will be 124 · 4 people.

124 · 4 = 496.

In 8 show times, there will be 496 people who view the movie

(Or, if there are 124 people in 2 shows, it means that there were 62 people in each show [assuming the crowd was split evenly], and if there were 8 shows, there would be 62 · 8 people, 62 · 8 = 496)
