To find the total number of seats, you can multiply the number of rows by the number of seats per row:

$\text{Total seats} = 42 \times 230 = 9660$

There are 9,660 seats in total.

1. How would the total change if there were 45 rows instead of 42?
2. What if each row had 250 seats instead of 230?
3. How many seats would be there if only 30 rows were available?
4. If a section of the seats were closed, how would you calculate the remaining seats?
5. How would you determine the average number of seats per row if you didn’t know the exact count for some rows?

Tip: When calculating totals in arrangements like rows and seats, multiplying rows by seats per row is always the best method!
