Question

Our new training room can seat 150 employees. If 6 tables consisting of 6 chairs are now taken, what percentage of our new facility's seating is full?

Answer 1

half of 150 will be full

Answer 2

Step 1

Find out how many chairs are already taken. Multiply the tables by the chairs

$6*6=36$

Step 2

By using proportion find the percentage

$\frac{150}{100} =\frac{36}{x} \\ \\ 150*x=36*100\\\\ x= \frac{3600}{150} \\ \\ x=24$

therefore

the answer is

$24$%
