Answer 1

Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that 1/4 of them failed, meaning that 3/4 of them passed.

1/3 of 3/4 is 1/4, meaning that 1/4 of the class got an A.

If 1/4 failed, and 1/4 passed with an A, that leaves 2/4 of the class that passed but didnt get an A, which simplifies to 1/2.

Hope this helps, and don't forget to mark brainliest <3
