Answer:

50 students

Explanation:

24% students in a clan were absent in a day .

Hence, the Percentage of students present is calculated as:.

= 100 % - 24 %

= 76%

From the question, we know that:

If 38 students were present ,what is the total strength in the clan

The total strength of the clan = Total number of students. This is calculated as:

76% × x = 38 students.

76/100 × x = 38

76x /100 = 38

Cross Multiply

76x = 38 × 100

x = 3800/76

x = 50 students
