Question

25 students submitted the HW this week, which was 77% of the class. How many students are in the class?

Answer 1

Explanation:

25 divide 77 = 0.32467532 x 100 = 32 (Leave off the rest, there is no such thing as a fraction of a person in this)

Simplified: (25/77)*100 = 32

To check our answer we would do 32 x 77%(.77) = 24.64 round-up and you get 25!
