Let
x--------> the number of adults who visited the museum on Wednesday

we know that
500 is the 100% of the people who visited the Amazing Art Museum on Wednesday
so 
for 72% the ratio will be

[tex] \frac{500}{x} = \frac{100}{72} \\ 500*72=x*100 \\ x= \frac{500*72}{100} \\ x=360[/tex]

the answer is 360 adults
19090

Sample Answer:

Write 72% as the ratio 72/100. To find an equivalent ratio, you know that 100 times 5 = 500, so 72 x 5 will give the answer. 72 x 5 = 360. 360 adults visited the museum on Wednesday.
