Answer:
972 people are left in the stadium.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Number of people went to a football match = 1800
Number of people left the match at half time= 46%
To Find:
Number of people are left in the stadium=?
Solution:
we know that, left over people = total count of people – people who left the match.
[tex]\text{{Left over people}}= 1800 -46\% \text{{of 1800}}[/tex]
[tex]\text{{Left over people}} = 1800(1- 46\%)[/tex]
[tex]\text{{Left over people}}= 1800\times (1 - 46\frac{1}{100})[/tex]
[tex]\text{{Left over people}} = 1800\times (1 - \frac{46}{100})[/tex]
[tex]\text{{Left over people}} = 1800\times\frac{(100-46)}{100}[/tex][tex]\text{{Left over people}}= 1800\times\frac{54}{100}[/tex][tex]\text{{Left over people}}= 18 \times 54[/tex][tex]\text{{Left over people}} = 972[/tex]
Hence, 972 people are still watching the match.
