University football stadium has 81,500 seats stainless full capacity on game day believes only 79,000 seats are occupied. Find the present area of the prediction around your answer the nearest hundredth of a percent.

Answer 1

To find the percentage of seats that are occupied in the stadium, we can use the formula:

\[ \text{Percentage Occupied} = \left( \frac{\text{Number of Occupied Seats}}{\text{Total Number of Seats}} \right) \times 100 \]

In this case:

• Number of Occupied Seats = 79,000
• Total Number of Seats = 81,500

Now plugging in the values:

\[ \text{Percentage Occupied} = \left( \frac{79,000}{81,500} \right) \times 100 \]

Calculating the fraction:

\[ \frac{79,000}{81,500} \approx 0.969 \]

Now multiplying by 100 to convert it to a percentage:

\[ 0.969 \times 100 \approx 96.9% \]

To round this to the nearest hundredth of a percent:

\[ \text{Percentage Occupied} \approx 96.900% \]

So the present area of the percentage of occupied seats, rounded to the nearest hundredth of a percent, is approximately 96.90%.
