Question

Required that there must be chaperones for every 25 how many chaperones must there be for 80 students

Answer 1

Answer:

6 chaperones on 80 students.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the complete question: School guideline required that there must be 2 chaperones for every 25 students on a school trip. how many chaperones must there be for 80 students?

Given: There must be 2 chaperones on every 25 students.

       

Now, we will use unitary method to solve.

We know 2 chaperones = 25 students

∴ one student required $\frac{2}{25}\ chaperones$

Next for 80 students, we require= $\frac{2}{25} \times 80 = \frac{160}{25}$

∴ For 80 students, we require $6.4 \ chaperones$, however, we cannot use decimal for number of person, so we can round off the number to 6 chaperones on every 80 students.
