Question

The number of visitors during the first week of the month is 2/3 of the visitors in the second week. If 360 people visit during the second week, find the number of people that visit in the first week.

• A. 120
• B. 140
• C. 240
• D. 360

Answer 1

The correct option is C 240

Let n be the number of visitors in the first week.

Number of visitors during second week = 360

Number of visitors in first week = $\frac{2}{3}$ $\times$ number of visitors of second week

$\Rightarrow \text{n}=\frac{2}{3}$ $\times$ 360

$=2\times$ 120

$=240$

Hence, the number of people that visit during the first week is 240.
