Question

A teacher wrote a question on the board to which

Answer 1

Answer:

23

Step-by-step explanation:

find 10% = 4

quadruple it = 16

half 10% = 2

half it again = 1

2.5% = 1

40% = 16

1 + 16 = 17

take 17 off of 40 = 23

Answer 2

100% - 42.5% = 57.5%
57.5% of the 40 students answered correctly.
57.5% of 40 = 0.575 × 40 = 23 students
