let
x = the average number of people at the pool per day throughout the summer
it is estimated that the number of people at the pool on opening day is 253% of the daily average number of people who go to the pool throughout the summer and on the opening day came 432 people
x + (253/100)x = 432
by solving we find
x = 122 people on average come at the pool per day throughout the summer
