Question

The turnout for a game is expected to reach 70,000 fans, of which 60 percent are expected to drive. an average of 2 fans come in each vehicle. there is parking for only 9,000 vehicles at the stadium; therefore, satellite parking will be needed. if each satellite lot can accommodate 1,500 vehicles, how many satellite lots will be needed?

Answer 1

Answer:8

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

First, calculate for the number of fans that would come to the event in their own vehicle. This is calculated by multiplying the number of fans by the percentage.
N = (70,000 fans)(0.60) = 42000
The number of vehicles is calculated by dividing the answer obtained above by 2.
n = (42000) / 2 = 21000

The number of vehicles in the satellite parking is the difference of 21000 and 9000 which gives us an answer of 12000. Since each satellite parking will accommodate 1500, dividing 12000 by 1500 is 8.
