Two-thirds of the people in a room are seated in three-fourths of the chairs. The rest of the people are standing. If there are 6 empty chairs, how many people are in the room?

27 people

Step-by-step explanation:

If 6 chairs are empty, that means 1/4 of the chairs is 6.

6*4 = 24, the total amount of chairs.

24 - 6 = 18, the number of chairs occupied.

If 18 people is 2/3 of the amount of people, if we divide 18 by 2, getting 9, that is 1/3 of the amount of people.

9 * 3 = 27, the total amount of people.
