SashulF [63]3 years ago

Answer:

21 students pass

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, you can set up the problem into an equation where the variable X would equal the number of students passing. You put X over the total number of students in the class, turning it into a fraction, then set it equal to the fraction  \frac{75}{100} (which is 75% represented as a fraction).

\frac{X}{28} = \frac{75}{100}

The fraction \frac{75}{100} can be simplified, because 75 and 100 are both multiples of 25, so after canceling out the 25s you would be left with \frac{3}{4}.

\frac{X}{28} = \frac{3}{4}

Next, you use the process of cross multiplication which is essentially just multiplying the denominators of both fractions (which would be 28 and 4 in this case) to each side of the equation.

\frac{X}{28} * 28 * 4 = \frac{3}{4} * 4 * 28

The denominators cancel out leaving you with a simple equation to simplify.

4* X =  3 * 28

4X = 84

Finally, divide both sides by four in order to isolate the variable.

\frac{4X}{4} = \frac{84}{4}

X = 21.
