A middle school took all of its 6th grade students on a field trip to see a play. The students filled 1917 seats, which was 45% of the total number of seats in the theater. How many total seats were in the theater?

4260 seats in the theater

Step-by-step explanation:

We write the equation 0.45x=1917, with x representing the total number of seats.

Multiply both sides by 100, we get 45x=191700.

Divide both sides by 45, we get x=191700/45

x=4260.

There are 4260 seats in the theater.
