Question

of the 24 students enrolled in a mathematics class, 3 students are members of the Math Club. These 3 students represent what percent of all of the students in the class?

Answer 1

Explanation:

if you did not leave anything out, then the whole class means the mathematics class of 24 students.

that means

100% = 24

1% = 100%/100 = 24/100 = 0.24

to see how many % the 3 students are, we need to find how many times 1% (0.24) fits into 3 :

3 / 0.24 = 12.5%

the 3 students are 12.5% of all of the students in the class.
