Mental way:
415 / 51.9 * 100 = 800 students in the school.

detailed way:
x is the amount of students in the school.
51.9% * x = 415
(divide both sides by 51.9% (or 0.519))
x = 800 students

Mrac [35]

Answer:

40%

Step-by-step explanation:

Original price = x

Sale = 20% off

20% / 100 = 0.2 to convert from a percent to a decimal

Sale = x - 20% of x = x - 0.2x = 0.8x

Sale price = y = 0.8x

Reduction of sale prices = 25% = 0.25

Reduction = y - 25% of y = y - 0.25y = 0.75y

End price in terms of original price (x):

0.75y = 0.75(0.8)x

          = 0.6x

End price = 0.6 or 60% of original price, coming out to a 100-60 = 40% overall percentage reduction
