Question

3 out of 4 students in Nayo's class have brought in permission slips for the next field trip. There are 32 students in the class. How many students still need to bring in their permission slips?

Answer 1

8
3/4
x/32

Solve for x, = 24

Subtract 24 from 32
Also another way
4 x n = 32
n = 8
3x8 = 24
Subtract and same result

Answer 2

Answer: The answer is 8!

Expalation: If three out of four have already brought in their permission slips, then only one out of four still needs to.

14 is an equivalent ratio to 832.
