benches in the park and the chairs people brought to the
party. of those seats, 0.45 of them were used by women
and girls. how many seats were used by men and boys? is

than ? draw or use a visual fraction model if needed to solve.

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

0.45 of the total seats were used by women and girls.

i.e. Remaining 0.55(1-0.45) of the total seats were used by men and boys.

Seats used by men and boys=55% of 380

Hence, Seats used by men and boys is:

209

and the fraction of total number of seats used by men and boys(0.55) is greater than that of total seats used by women and girls(0.45).
