A crowd of 50,000 fans is expected to attend the homecoming football game. if the typical vendor can serve 1,500 customers per hour and the game will last for four hours, how many vendors are needed to ensure that each fan can be served during the game? (round to the nearest whole number.) a) 9 b) 10 c) 8 d) 1

Respuesta :

Since every hour, a vendor sells to 1500 customers, we multiply by hours, like this:


1500 * 4 = 6000.


Then we divide 50000/6000, and that would give us 8.33333333, and we round that to the next number which is 9, and that's the answer.


Answer: 9 vendors.

What is Multiplication?

Multiplication is to "increase a number by the number of times mentioned".

According to the question,

Number of fans expected to attend a football game = 50,000

Number of customer to be served = 1,500per hour

To find number of customer to be served for 50,000 fans

The game has to be last for 4 hours.

Formula :  1 vendor is to sell 1,500 customer per hour

4*1500 = 6000

A vendor has to sell 6000 customers in 4 hours.

In order to find the number of vendors have to sell 50,000 customers in 4 hours

Let 'x' be the number of vendors

To find the number of vendors only if we divide 50,000  by 6000

=[tex]\frac{50,000}{6000}[/tex] = 8.333 ≈ 9

Hence, there are 9 vendors are needed to ensure that each fan can be served during the game.
