Question

In an auditorium, 1/6 of the students are fifth graders, 1/3 is fourth graders, and 1/4 of the remaining students are second graders. If there are 96 students in the auditorium, how many second graders are there?

Answer 1

48 second graders

Explanation:

Number of fifth graders = 1/6 of 96

`(1)/(6)*96\\\\=16`

Number of forth graders = 1/3 of 96

`= (1)/(3)*96\\\\= 32`

Number of second graders = 96 - 16 - 32

= 48
