You can fit 16 people in a 6 x 6 ft square. Using this ratio, how many people can fit in a 50 x 50 ft square? SHOW WORK

Respuesta :

the number of people that enters in a 50ft by 50ft square is 1,111 people.

How many people can fit in a 50 x 50 ft square?

We know that you can fit 16 people in a 6ft by 6ft square. The area of that square is:

A = 6ft*6ft = 36 ft^2

Then the density of people that enter per square foot is:

N = (16 people)/(36 ft^2) = 0.44 people per ft^2

Now, in a square of 50ft by 50ft the area is:

A= 50ft*50ft = 2,500 ft^2

The number of people that enters in that square is the area times the density, which gives:

(0.44 people per ft^2)*(2,500 ft^2) = 1,111.11 people.

Rounding to the next whole number, the number of people that enters in a 50ft by 50ft square is 1,111 people.
