Question

If there are 18 boys and 22 girls in a class. One student was absent on one day. What is the probability of the absentee being a girl?​

Answer 1

22/40 or 11/20 or 55%

Explanation:

First, we have to find the total number of students.

18+22=40

The percentage of girls in the class is 22/40.

That's also the probability of the absentee being a girl.
