The fraternity house you manage has 6,270 square feet of lot space. city ordinance allows one student for every 330 square of lot space. how many students can live in this house

number of students who can live in this house = 19 students

Explanation:
We are given that the total area of the house is 6270 ft² and that each student occupies a space of 330 ft².

To get the maximum number of students who can live in this house, all we have to do is divide the total space by the space given for each child.
This is the concept of cross multiplication as follows:
1 student ..................> 330 ft²
?? students ................> 6270 ft²

number of students = 

Hope this helps :)

19 students can live in this house.

  = 19.
