Question

In a school, 30% of the students arrived by private car, 15 travel by taxi and the remainder walk to school. If the school has a population of 230, how many more students walk to school than arrives by car?

Answer 1

Answer:

57.5 students

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

The 30% students would be arrived by private car

So 15% would be travelled by taxi

And, the remaining i.e. 55% would be walk to school

Since the population of the school is 230

So by car, the students would be

= 230 × 0.30

= 69

By walk, the students would be

= 230 × 0.55  

= 126.50

Now the more students would be

= 126.50 - 69

= 57.5 students
