Enrolement increased by 30% that means last year=100%
incease of 30%=30+100=130% now

now=182

percent means parts out of 100 so
130%=130/100=13/10


182=13/10 of x (x represents the number last year)
of means multipy so
182=13/10 times x
multiply both sides by 10/13 to clear fraction
182 times 10/13=x=140



140 students last year

There are 15 students on a yearbook committee. 40% of the students are females. How many students on the committee are males?
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

9 students on the committee are males

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the statement:

There are 15 students on a yearbook committee.

⇒Total students on a yearbook committee = 15

⇒\text{Male students} +\text{Female students} = 15     ....[1]

It is given that:

40% of the students are females

⇒\text{Female students} = \frac{40}{100} \cdot 15 = 6

Substitute in [1] we have;

\text{Male students} + 6 = 15

Subtract 6 from both sides we have;

\text{Male students}= 9

Therefore, 9 students on the committee are males
