Answer:

240 people fill the whole room

Step-by-step explanation:

If 60 people means that a room is only a quarter full, then an unknown value would mean that the room is full. Let's call the unknown value *x*

[tex]60 = \frac{1}{4} [/tex]

[tex]x = 1[/tex]

We cross multiply; this will give us an equation that says:

[tex]60 = \frac{1}{4} x[/tex]

We then divide 60 by a quarter to find *x*, which is the unknown value

[tex] \frac{60}{1} \div \frac{1}{4} \: which \: is \: \frac{60}{1} \times \frac{4}{1} = 240[/tex]
