Answer 1

Let's begin by listing out the given information:

18 students passed

Total students = 25

Number of people who did not pass = 25 - 18 = 7

7 out of 25 students did not pass. This has its percentage as:

`\begin{gathered} (7)/(25)\cdot100\text{\%}=28\text{\%} \\ \Rightarrow28\text{\%} \end{gathered}`

Therefore, 28% of the students did not pass
