Question

12 of the students in the school choir like to sing solos. These 12 students make up 24 percent of the school choir. How many students are in the choir?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Let the total number of students in the choir be x

24℅ of x = 12

24/100 of x = 12

6x/25 = 12

6x = 12× 25

6x = 300

x = 50
