Answer: 36 million.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we simply have to multiply the total number of moviegoers (45 million) 4/5 (moviegoers between ages 24-34)

Mathematically speaking:

45m x 4/5 = 45 x 4/5 = 36 million

it can also be solved like this:

45,000,000 x 4/5 = 36,000,000

The approximate number of people ages 24-34 who attended the movies in that year were 36 million.
