Brady, Dana, Elijah, and Gianna took part in the school play. Before the start of the play, they each guessed the number of people who would come to see the play. Brady guessed 292 people, Dana guessed 325 people, Elijah guessed 340 people, and Gianna guessed 371 people. It turned out that Dana's guess was the closest, Elijah's guess was the second closest, and Brady's guess was the farthest from the actual number. What is the actual number of people who came to see the play?

332

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Dana had the closest guess with 325 people and Elijah had the second closest guess with 340 people we know that the actual number of guests is close to these values. Since Brady had the farthest guess then that means that the actual number of guests is higher than 325 and lower than 340. Therefore the actual number of guests can only be 332 as it is between Dana and Elijah's guesses but still favoring Dana, and also being farthest from Brady's guess.
