On one side of a football stadium are 30 suites on the circle level. fourteen of the suites have 24 seats each, and the rest have 18 seats. tyler says that 14/30 is the simplest form of the fraction to describe the suites with 24 seats. is he correct? use models to support your conclusion and explain why tyler is correct or incorrect.

For this case what you can do is a rule of three to know how many suites have 24 seats.
 We have then:
 30 --- 100%
 14 --- x
 Clearing x we have
 x = (14/30) * 100 = 46.67%
 this means that:
 0.4667 * 30 = 14
 Equivalently
 (14/30) * 30 = 14
 Therefore it is shown that (14/30) is correct to represent the number of suites that have 24 seats.
 answer
 Tyler is correct. 14/30 is the simplest form of the fraction to describe the suites with 24 seats.
