Question

A theater has 60 seats in the first row, 68 in the second row and 76 in the third row, and so on. There is a total of 40 rows in the theater. What is the difference on number of seats between two consecutive rows?

Answer 1

8 seats

Explanation:

• Identify the number of seats in the first row:

In this case, the first row has 60 seats.

• Determine the number of seats in the second row:

The second row has 68 seats, which is obtained by adding 8 seats to the number of seats in the first row.

• Calculate the difference in the number of seats: Subtract the number of seats in the first row from the number of seats in the second row.

68 seats - 60 seats = 8 seats
