Show your work all your work in a school auditorium there are 33 seats in each roll of seeds how many rows are needed for 528 students to each have a seat

Answer 1

To determine how many rows are needed for 528 students in a school auditorium where each row contains 33 seats, we can use division.

1. Identify the total number of students: 528
2. Identify the number of seats per row: 33

Now, we can calculate the number of rows needed by dividing the total number of students by the number of seats per row:

\[ \text{Number of Rows} = \frac{\text{Total Students}}{\text{Seats per Row}} \]

Substituting the values into the equation:

\[ \text{Number of Rows} = \frac{528}{33} \]

Now, we perform the division:

\[ 528 \div 33 = 16 \]

Since 528 is exactly divisible by 33, we don't have any remaining students. Thus, 16 rows will accommodate all 528 students.

To ensure our calculation is correct, we can multiply the number of rows by the number of seats per row:

\[ \text{Total Seats} = \text{Number of Rows} \times \text{Seats per Row} \] \[ \text{Total Seats} = 16 \times 33 = 528 \]

This confirms that our calculation is accurate. Therefore, the number of rows needed is:

\[ \boxed{16} \]
