At a basketball game, 6% were supporting the visiting team. If total number of people attending the game was 2500, how many people were supporters of the home team?

Respuesta :

There were 2350 people supporting the home team

How to determine the number of supporters?

The given parameters are:

Total = 2500

Proportion that supports the visiting team= 6%

Let the number of people that supports the team be x.

So, we have:

x = (1 - Proportion that supports the visiting team) * Total

This gives

x = (1 - 6%) * 2500

Evaluate

x = 2350

Hence, there were 2350 people supporting the home team
