Question

The seventh-grade students at Alaniz Middle School went on a field trip. At lunch

17 students drank lemonade. This represented 20% of the students on the field
trip. How many Students were on the field trip?

Answer 1

85 students

Explanation:

If 17 = 20%

It means is the fifth part of 100%

Because 20% * 5 = 100%

With that logic if we multiply the amount of students by 5 we will get the total of students.

17*5= 85
