A survey showed that 30% of students bring their lunch to school. The survey polled 300 students. How many of the 300 students d

Karolina [17]

Let's first find how many students bring their lunch to school. This is 30% of 300. To find this value, convert the percentage to a fraction (or decimal) and multiply:

$30\% \,\, \textrm{of} \,\,300 = \dfrac{3}{10} \cdot 300 = \dfrac{900}{10} = 90$

Since 90 students bring their lunch to school, we can say 210 students do not bring their lunch to school. (300 - 90 = 210)
