allright im wirtting an exhibition a paper for 10th grade. i need to know what would be the best place to find out how many people can fit in that certain place. also what type of math and resources should i need. also what type of websites can give you help on this topic. All answers and suggestions would be apreciated. the paper has to be a minimum of 10 pages or more. so i also need background info and what other ways knowing how many people fit in a room can help people out.

Assuming you aren't stacking people vertically, you would need the square footage that each person requires. Divide that into the total square footage to get the number of people.
Obviously it is a lot more involved than that when you consider fire safety, personal comfort, resources, structural load of the floor, etc.
Sounds like you've got some research ahead of you... however it could turn out to be a fun project, especially if you get some friends involved in squishing into the smallest square footage possible, and then asking them to give you answers about personal comfort space, etc. You could see if there are cultural biases too. Perhaps certain cultures are used to being closer while others expect more "personal space".

Depends on "How much space is required for one person." Once you know this you can divide that into the square footage for the room size you have, the answer will tell you how many persons can fit in that room without moving around.
If it takes 1.5 sq ft per person, and i have 312 sq ft room
312/1.5 = 208 people, for example, but i'd give them more room than what i have...hahahahaha

first find out how much of area and air is needed by one person multiply both and wollah!! you get the space needed the best place would be an exhibition hall.
try the CBSE9th std text book chapter volumes and surface areas from india.

besides the mathematical packing problem, you should look at building codes in various cities, states, etc. This limits the "occupancy" of rooms for different types of functions (assembly, sitting, etc). These are safety concerns, but seem to be part of your topic.

jam people into a [small] area whose size you know.
count the people.
make a proportion to the area of the room you want
