Question

Answer 1

25 students

Explanation:

we know that

44℅ of Mrs. Rutherford's class like chocolate ice cream

11 students like chocolate ice cream

so

11 students represent a 44℅ of Mrs. Rutherford's class

using proportion

Find out how many students represent a percentage of 100% (total students in the class)

`(11)/(44\%)=(x)/(100\%)\\\\x=11(100)/44\\\\x=25\ students`
