At a college baseball game 4/5 of the spectators are home team fans.
The rest of the spectators are opposing team fans.
A) The fraction of spectators who are opposing team fans = 1-4/5
= (5-4)/5
= 1/5
B) Given 1/5 part of spectators = 750
Therefore Total number of spectators = 750/(1/5)
= 750*5
= 3750
C) Number of home team fans = 3750-750 = 3000
Given, one third of the home team fans at the game attend the college.
Number of home team fans attend the college = 3000*(1/3) = 1000
