Step-by-step explanation: In order to find the number, we will need to set it up in an equation. In total, there are 460 students while 60% of them have pets. Lets set that up.
460(60%)
In order to correctly do this, we will need to transfer 60% into a decimal, which is .6. Now we will rewrite it.
460(.6)
This now can be represented by the number 276.
Since we know that 276 is 60% of 460, The total number of students that have pets will be 276.
The usual definition of Least Common Multiple of two numbers states that is the Least positive integer that can be evenly divided by both numbers. The way it is usually defined the two numbers must be positive integers
