Answer:
An equation that represents the given situation is [tex]203+x=250[/tex] and the additional number of students that can be seated is 47
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of students already seated in school cafeteria = 203
Let x be the additional number of students that can be seated
So, Total number of seats available in school cafeteria = 203+x
We are given that the school cafeteria seats 250 students
So, 203+x=250
[tex]\Rightarrow x=250-203[/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow x=47[/tex]
Hence an equation that represents the given situation is [tex]203+x=250[/tex] and the additional number of students that can be seated is 47
