\[\frac{ 1 }{ 3 }(600)?\]

Answer 9

alright i don't like the word "think" when you come to an answer that makes me feel i didnt do my job teaching you did you do the equations?

Answer 10

i want you to be sure it's the right answer :)

Answer 11

Ok im postive it was the Homecoming game because there were 510 fans and only 210 at the first game @KLOwNLOvE

Answer 12

your answer is right process is wrong

Answer 13

1/3 of 600 is 200 and because 1/3 of the seats are empty you subtract 200 into 600 to find out how many people were there which is 400

Answer 14

500 ppl were at the last game

Answer 15

so for home coming make 85% into a decimal (.85) and multiply by 600=510

Answer 16

Ohh @KLOwNLOvE makes sense
