To find a number's , let's say "x%" you should multiply that number by, $\frac { x }{ 100 }$ , so we want to find 150 's 20% , so we will multiply , 150 with $\frac { 20 }{ 100 }$ , so :

$150\cdot \frac { 20 }{ 100 } \\ \\ We\quad can\quad simplify\quad \frac { 20 }{ 100 } \\ \\ \frac { 20 }{ 100 } =\frac { 2\cdot 10 }{ 10\cdot 10 } =\frac { 10 }{ 10 } \cdot \frac { 2 }{ 10 } =1\cdot \frac { 2 }{ 10 } =\frac { 2 }{ 10 } \\ \\ 150\cdot \frac { 2 }{ 10 } =\frac { 150\cdot 2 }{ 10 } =\frac { 300 }{ 10 } =30\\ \\ %20\quad of\quad 150\quad is\quad 30$

Answer:

The students can group themselves in 360360 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

For this exercise we need to use the following equation:

$\frac{n!}{n1!*n2!*...*nk!}$

This equation give us the number of assignation of n elements in k cell, where n1, n2, ..nk are the element that are in every cell

In this case we have 15 student that need to be assign in three vehicles with an specific capacity. This vehicles would be the equivalent to cells, so we can write the equation as:

$\frac{15!}{7!*5!*3!}$
