Answer:

69.92 million people

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the next data:

Recent year = 70.9 million people= 1.14% increase from the prior year

Question to answer

How many people visited the top 5 theme in the prior year?

By the rule of three we have that

70.9 = 101.14%

x       = 100%

The increase is related to the total of people that visited the parks in the prior year so we can say that our 100% is related to that number of visitors in the prior year

[tex]\frac{(100)*(70.9)}{101.4} =69.92[/tex]

Hence the answer is 69.92 million people
