Answer:
30 is 20% of 150 i.e. 20% of total 150 students in the marching bank play the trumpet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Draw two number lines:
- One number line to represent number of students from 0 to 150. For convenience, divide the number line into intervals of 15 so that 30 is also present on the line.
- Second number line to represent percentage and divide it in intervals from 1 to 100.
Now, place the other number line just below the other number line and draw a vertical line as shown the attached figure.
We find out that 30 is at 20% of 150.
It means that 20% (30 of total 150) of total 150 students in the marching band, play trumpet.
