Answer 1

Bro what a brain teaser! The answer I think is 1/10

Explanation:

At typical high school, 60% of the students like dancing, (A) and the rest dislike it. of those who like dancing, 80% say that they like it, and the rest say that they dislike it. of those who dislike dancing, 90% say that they dislike it, (B) and the rest say that they like it. what fraction of students who say they (A) dislike dancing actually (B) like it?

I have bolded the important information and how they correlate to the question. 40% of the students in the entire school dislike dancing (A). Of those 40% of students 10% like dancing (B).

0.1 divided by 1, so the answer is 1/10 of the students that say they dislike dancing actually like it.
