Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: the number of students that were surveyed is 40
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = total number of students that were surveyed about their favorite colors
1/4 of the students preferred red.
This means that the number of students that preferred red is 1/4 × x = x/4
1/8 of the students preferred blue.
This means that the number of students that preferred blue is 1/8 × x = x/8
The remaining number of students will be the total number of students - the sum of the number of students that preferred red and the number of students that preferred blue. It becomes
x - (x/4 + x/8) = x - 3x/8 = 5x/8
3/5 of the remaining students were for green. This means that the number of students that preferred green is 3/5 × 5x/8 = 3x/8
if 15 students prefer green, then
3x/8 = 15
3x = 120
x = 120/3 = 40 students
For these problems, the this number is this percent of what number ones, turn the percent into a decimal.
Do this by moving the decimal two places to the left.
0.25 is the decimal.
Now divide the whole number by the decimal.
60/0.25=240
60 is 25% of 240
