Question

24 students in a class took a math test. If 18 students passed the test, what percent passed?

Answer 1

75%

Explanation:

24 x 0.75 (75% as a decimal) = 18

Answer 2

18 students is the amount that passed the test

so the fraction would be 18/24, which can be simplified to 3/4, which is 75% of the class.

75% of the class passed

0.75% of the class passed
