Answer 1

1.

300 x 0.15 = 45

300 - 45 = 255

255 kids came to the party

//

2.

80 x 0.20 = 16

80 - 16 = 64

She got 64 items correctly

//

3.

50 x 0.28 = 14

50 - 14 = 36

36 pupils were present

//

4.

48 / 50 = 0.96

0.96 x 100 = 96.0%

96% joined the trip

//

5.

50 x 0.06 = 3

3 pupils are left handed
