Question

A class of 30 has 11 home with flu. If the proportion of students home with the flu in class holds true for the entire school's 432 students, how many students in the school are home with the flu?

Answer 1

30:11

432/30 = 14.4

11 * 14.4 = 158.4

If it holds true for the entire school, 158 kids are home with the flu.
