In a recent year, 27% of all college students were enrolled part-time. If 8.7 million college students were enrolled part-time that year, what was the total number of college students? Round your answer to the nearest million.

Answer 1

25625000 rounded to nearest million = 26 million

Answer 2

27% = 8.7 mil

find 1% by dividing both sides by 27

1% = 0.32222222

now multiply by 100 to find total of students

100% = 32.2

rounded to nearest million is 32million
