1/4 of the seniors have averages above 90.
\n" ); document.write( "The remainder is 3/4 of the seniors.
\n" ); document.write( "1/2 of the remainders have averages between 80 and 90.
\n" ); document.write( "That means that 1/2 * 3/4 of the seniors have averages between 80 and 90.
\n" ); document.write( "That means that 3/8 of the seniors have averages between 80 and 90.
\n" ); document.write( "The total number of seniors that have averages above 80 is equal to 1/4 + 3/8.
\n" ); document.write( "Since 1/4 = 2/8, then the total number of seniors that have averages above 80 is equal to 5/8.
\n" ); document.write( "That leaves 3/8 of the seniors that have averages below 80 because 5/8 + 3/8 = 8/8 = 1.\r
