Answer:

85 less rooms this year than last

Explanation:

The number of rooms (n) occupied for this month last year is given by the Room Revenue ($231,470) divided by the daily rate ($76.72):

[tex]n=\frac{\$231,470}{\$76.72}\\n=3,017\\[/tex]

The number of rooms occupied last year is larger than the number of rooms occupied this year by:

[tex]\Delta n = 3,017-2,932\\\Delta n = 85\ rooms[/tex]

The hotel occupied 85 less rooms this year than last.
