Answer:

Theater B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Find out each theatre's percentage of seats taken.

Theater A =

100% = 60

1% = 60 ÷ 100 = 0.60

36 ÷ 0.60 = 60% of the seats taken.

Theater B =

81 + 9 = 90

100% = 90

1% = 90 ÷ 100 = 0.90

81 ÷ 0.90 = 90%

Theater C =

100% = 80

1% = 80 ÷ 100 = 0.80

80 - 12 = 68

68 ÷ 0.80 = 85%

Theater B have the greatest percentage of seats taken out of all 3.
