75% of the students like skating....this means that 25% of the students do not like skating....and 35 students do not like skating.
so 25% of the total students = 35
0.25x = 35
x = 35 / 0.25
x = 140....so there are 140 total students.

and 75% of the total students like skating....so 75% of 140..
0.75 * 140 = 105 students like skating <==
