At a football game, the ratio of filled seats to empty seats was 7 to 3. The maximum capacity of the stadium is 70,580 seats. How many seats were filled for the game?

Respuesta :

Add the two numbers in the ratio: 7 +3 = 10

Divide total capacity by 10:

70,580 / 10 = 7,058

Multiply that by the ratio of filled seats:

7,058 x 7 = 49,406

49,406 seats were filled.
