Question

56% children of a class of 25 like getting wet in the rain , how many students do not like getting wet in the rain

Answer 1

Answer:

11 students

Step-by-step explanation:

Let G be the percentage that likes getting wet and D be the percentage who do not like.

Let Dn be number of students who do not like to get.

Given the following data;

Percentage of students that likes getting wet, G = 56%

Total number of students = 25

To find the number of students who doesn't like getting wet;

G + D = 100

56 + D = 100

D = 100 - 56

D = 44%

Dn = 44/100 * 25

Dn = 1100/100

Dn = 11

Method II.

Number of students that like to get wet = 56/100 * 25

= 1400/100

= 14 students.

Therefore, number of students who do not like to get is;

25 - 14 = 11 students.
