In the fairest school 70% are below 16 years old
1/3 are teachers which is equals to = 21
Let’s start solving:
=> 1/3 of 100%
=> 100 / 3 = 33.33%
thus 33.33% = 21
=> 21 x 3 = 63, is the total number of people in the school.
Let’s try solving the number of people below 16 years old
Have you notice that you are asking for a 70% of students but there are already 33.33% of teacher. Thus your given problem is not right already.
=> 100% - 33.33% = 66.67% that’s the only remaining percentage and not 70%
=> 63 * .6667 = 42.0021
Thus, there are around 42 people who are 16 years old younger.
Start by going in the order of decimals and what ever you end at, put this number on top 142857/<span>100000 And then you simplify it to the smallest numbers and you have your answer. It can't be simplified so it is just: </span>142857/<span>100000</span>
