Question 1031375: Six students in a class failed in algebra. This represents 16? per cent of the class. How many students passed the course?
kindly Sir helped me to find answer... Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! if 6 students are 16% of the class
6/0.16=x/1
0.16x=6
x=6/0.16
37.5
84% passed, so that would be 31.5 This would be rounded to 32 normally. It has to be rounded in any case, since there are only integer numbers of students.
