Question 758451: Could you please help me solve this problem:-
There are fewer than 30 students in a math's class and this year the grades are given out as follows -
one third of the students got an A
one quarter of the students got a B
four students got a C and
three students got an E
How many students got a D?
My understanding is that there must be 29 or less students in the class to begin with. My next step I think I have to do is work out what fraction is 1/3 + 1/4 + the 4 + 5 students which got a grade away from this number of 29 or less and this will give me the answer.
Now I know the answer is 5 (the sheet tells me) but I am lost in how you work out this equation. Could you please show me how to calculate this formula - I am a mature student trying to re-visit long ago maths and am finding many missing parts lol.
Many thanks & most appreciated
