Answer:
30% students
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of total students of a school.
63% are girls then total number of girls = (0.63)x
37% are boys then total number of boys = ( 0.37)x
Now 23% of girls wear contacts then total number of girls
= (0.63x) × 0.23
= (0.1449x)
And 42% of boys wear contacts then total number of boys wearing contacts
= (0.37x) ( 0.42)
= (0.1554)x
Total students wears contacts = ( 0.1449x) + (0.1554x)
= (0.3003x)
Percentage of students wear contacts = × 100
= × 100
= 30%
All 30% students wear contacts.
Hello There!
Dividing a fraction is the same thing as multiplying by its reciprocal.
This means that ÷
is the same as multiplying
by
.
So basically when you divide you leave the first fraction alone but the second fraction in this case, 5/12 you would flip the number on top and the number on bottom to 12/5.
HAVE A GREAT DAY!
