First, calculate how many seats are not taken:
60 seats * 0.30 = 18 seats not taken
Now subtract the seats not taken from the total number of seats to find out how many seats are taken:
60 seats - 18 seats = 42 seats taken
Therefore, there are 42 seats taken in the movie theater.
If there are 60 seats in the movie theater and 30% of the seats are not taken. How many seats are TAKEN?
