Question 1026983
I tried to understand this problem: 

A high school football game had an attendance of 561, which is 19% more than last week. How many people attended last week's game? 

I got: 
(100+19)%=119%*561=1.19*561=667.59
<pre>Let number of attendees last week be A
Then number of attendees this week = A + .19A = 1.19A
Therefore, we get: 1.19A = 561
A, or number of attendees last week = {{{561/1.19}}}. Round up to the nearest integer.
