Answer :

Answer:

  • See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1

There are 20 sections and each section can fit 308 people.

Number of people would be present at a sold out game:

  • 308*20 = 6160

Part 2

Count the number of rectangular and square sections, it is 8.

Number of people were present at hockey game:

  • 308*8 = 2464

Part 3

The area of hockey rink:

  • 200*90 = 18000 ft²

Number of people the rink can accommodate:

  • 18000/2.5 = 7200

This number is greater than the crowd at a sold out game:

  • 7200 > 6160

So the answer is Yes.
