To find the percent error, we need to compare the difference between Layla's prediction (79,000) and the actual number of seats (81,500), and then express this difference as a percentage of the actual number of seats.
First, find the difference between the actual and predicted number of seats: 81,500 - 79,000 = 2,500
Then, express this difference as a percentage of the actual number of seats: (2,500 / 81,500) * 100 = 3.07%
Therefore, Layla's percent error is 3.07%.
