Question

Two thirds of students in class study math and the remaining eight students do not study math. What is the total number of students in this class?

Answer 1

Answer: 24 total students

Step-by-step explanation: Two thirds of students in class study math and the remaining eight students do not study math, meaning that the class is split into thirds, if one third of the class is 8 students then all three thirds combined would equal 24 students.

3 x 8 = 24

Answer 2

24 students.

Explanation:

2/3 of the class study math, and 8 students do not study math.

To complete 2/3, you would need 1/3 to have the total number of students.

and 1/3 of 24 is 8, so the total number of students is 24.

I hope this helps
