Question

Asap pls help and explain

A theater can hold 160 giants or 240 elves. If 100 giants are inside, how many elves can also be admitted ?

Answer 1

the answer would be 90

Explanation:

100 giants fills 5/8 (100/160) of the theater leaving 3/8 of the theater for the elves.

3/8 times 240 elves is 90 elves.

If there were 150 elves that would also be 5/8 filled plus the original 5/8 filled with 100 giants! Some elves might suffer!!!
