What is the minimum number of plumbing fixtures required for a gym with a capacity of 50 people?

The correct answer is: 4

The minimum number of plumbing fixtures required for a gym with a capacity of 50 people is 4. This is because the International Plumbing Code (IPC) requires a minimum of one plumbing fixture for every 25 people, and since the gym has a capacity of 50 people, we multiply that by 0.25 and get 12.5. Since we can't have a fractional plumbing fixture, the minimum number is rounded up to 4. Option A is incorrect because this would not meet the IPC requirement. Option B is incorrect because it does not take into account the fractional requirement of 12.5 fixtures. Option D is also incorrect because it does not meet the IPC requirement.
