Final answer:

To find how many students will receive a grade of B, multiply 25% (converted to 0.25) by the total number of students, 300, giving you 75 students.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the number of students who will receive a grade of B, we will calculate 25% of the total enrollment. Since there are 300 students in the math class, we apply the percentage to this numbe

  1. Convert the percentage to a decimal: 25% = 0.25.
  2. Multiply the total number of students by this decimal: 0.25 × 300 students.
  3. Perform the calculation: 0.25 × 300 = 75.

Therefore, 75 students in the math class will receive a grade of B.
