Question

anonymous · Answer

Every evening is 1/4 of the people  so 1/4 of 440  is 1/4 * 440 = 110 people

five or six nights is 2/5 of the people so 2/5 of 440 is  2/5 * 440 = 176 people

four nights or less - two ways to do this one.
If there are 440 people then 440 - 110 - 176 = 154 people        or

1/4 + 2/5 =
5/20 + 8/20 = 13/20  so the rest of the 20/20 is  7/20

so 7/20 of the people are 4 or less so 7/20 of 440 is  7/20 * 440 = 154 people
