Question

a survey of students in a school showed 1/2 of the students exercise regularly, 2/5 of the students exercise occasionally and the rest of the students do not exercise at all what fraction of the students do not exercise

Answer 1

1/10

Explanation:

add 2/5 and 1/2 then subtract from 1 whole to find the remainder

make it so they have the same denominator

2/5 = 4/10

1/2 = 5/10

4/10 + 5/10 = 9/10

1=10/10

10/10-9/10 = 1/10

so 1/10 of the students don't exercise at all
