Question

1/3 of the guests chose beef , 5/12 of the guests chose chicken 69 of the guests choose vegetarian how many guests were there at the wedding please explain how to do this

Answer 1

276 guests

Explanation:

So 1/3 is equal to 4/12.

4/12+5/12 is equal to 9/12

Therefore the 3/12 of guests chose vegetarian.

3/12 is equal to 69.

That means 1/12 is 23 because 69/3 is 23.

Then the total number of guests is 12/12 and since 1/12 is 23 that means 12/12 is 276. (23*12)
