A classroom will seat 80 people. If 56 seats are filled, what percentage of the seats are filled?

2 answers

To find the percentage of seats filled, we divide the number of filled seats by the total number of seats and multiply by 100.

Percentage of seats filled = (56/80) * 100 = 70%

Therefore, 70% of the seats are filled.
