There are 30 seats in each column and there are five columns, so that means you have (30 x 5) 150 seats in one cabin. There are three seats in each row in the other cabin and 10 rows total, so that means there is (10 x 3) 30 seats in the other cabin. 150 + 30 = 180 total seats.

The easiest way to find any percent of any number is to first find 10% of the number. To find 25% of 60,000, just find 10%, which is 6,000. To find 20%, just double 10% (6,000 x 2 = 12,000). To find 5%, just split 10% in half (6,000/2 = 3,000). Then add the results together (12,000 + 3,000 = 15,000).
