Question

Answer 1

287/350=0.82
0.82x100=82

Answer 2

82%

Explanation:

To calculate this percentage, we must calculate the quotient between the number of people who have already taken the photo (specific) and the number of students in the class (total), as follows:

`\begin{gathered} (287)/(350)=0.82 \\ \text{ In percentage it would be:} \\ 0.82\cdot100=82 \end{gathered}`
