Camy attended 40 out of 45 days

Jossie attended 85 out of 94
days

Answer 1

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

To determine who went or didn't go to the party, we have to calculate the percentage of attendance of each student has:

• James:

From 52 days of virtual class, he attended 46:

`p_(J)=(46)/(52)`

`p_(J)=0.88` or 88%

• Fabian frequented 72 days in a total of 79 days:

`p_(F)=(72)/(79)`

`p_(F)=0.91` or 91%

• In Londa's case, in 67 days, 61 were attended:

`p_(L)=(61)/(67)`

`p_(L)=0.91` or 91%

• Camy:

`p_(C)=(40)/(45)`

`p_(C)=0.88` or 88%

• Jossie:

`p_(Jo)=(85)/(94)`

`p_(Jo)=0.90` or 90%

To attend the party, the student has to have frequented at 90% of the virtual classes, which means that the minimum necessary for a student to go the party is 90%. So:

1. Students who attended the dance party are Fabian, Londa and Jossie.

2. Students who do not get to attend are James and Camy.

3. Ms. Mable has 35 students and 20% will go to the party, which means:

`35.(20)/(100)` = 7

From Ms. Mable's class, 7 students get to attend the dance party
