Answers

  1. Answer:

    Hi there!

    Your answer is: 150 people prefer that school assemblies be held on Friday afternoon

    Step-by-step explanation:

    3 out of 4 students means that 75% of students prefer assemblies on Friday afternoon!

    To find 75% of 200:

    200 = 100%

    /100 to find 1%

    2 people = 1%

    Multiply it by 75 to determine 75%

    2×75= 150

    150people is 75% of 200 people!

    I hope this makes sense! Let me know if you have questions!

  2. Answer:

    150 students

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Because they are surveying 200 students, you’ll want to divide that 200 by 4. You divide by 4 because then that gives you the amount of 1/4 of 200, which is 50. From there, the problem says that 3/4 people prefer assemblies on Friday. Now that you know 1/4 of 200 is 50, you simply multiply 50 by 3. This created the answer, 150 students.
