Answer:

52 students are attending the arts class.

Explanation:

Given that

Total number of students in the art class = 58

Percentage of students that cancelled on first day = 10.3%

First of all we have to calculate the number of students that cancelled on the first day


No\ of\ students\ who\ cancelled = 10.3\%\ of\ 58\\= 0.103*58\\=5.974

As the number of students cannot be in decimal number, so rounding off to nearest whole number will given us: 6

6 students cancelled the class. So,

Number of students attending the class are:


= Total\ students - students\ who\ cancelled\\= 58 - 6 = 52

Hence,

52 students are attending the arts class.
