Q:

Question:A hotel has a number of meeting rooms, m, available for events. Each meeting room has 325 chairs. Write an equation to represent c, the total number of chairs in all of the meeting rooms at the hotel.If m=7 use your equation to find the total number of chairs in all of the meeting rooms at the hotelplease help me :^(

Accepted Solution

A:
What we know:
- number of meeting rooms = m
- chairs in each meeting room = 325

Since we need an equation to represent the number of chairs in m meeting rooms, we would multiply the amount of chairs per meeting room (325) by m. This amount is c. So the equation becomes:

c = 325m

Now the question asks for the amount of chairs if there are 7 meeting rooms in the hotel. To find this, substitute 7 for m into c = 325m.

c = 325m
c = 325(7)
c = 2275

Answer:
The equation is c = 325m, and the amount of chairs if m equals 7 is 2,275.
