Question

Suppose only 24% of 300 students chose conserving natural resources. How many students chose conserving natural resources? Explain how you found your answer . How can the model help you justify the answer?

Answer 1

The answer is 72 students

Answer 2

The answer is 72 students chose conserving natural resources.

Explanation:

10% of 300 is 30, so 20% of 300 is 60, and then 5% of 300 is 15. This makes the answer 72 people. Also, the formula for calculating percentages is value/total value x 100%. I am not sure what the model looks like. I hope this helps!
