Question

The percentage of students in the school that attended the talent show for the years 2008 to 2013 are shown.This Year, the school had a total of 360 students. How many students do you expect to attend the talent show this year? Explain.

Answer 1

Considering this year as the last year in the table which is 2013

`\text{the total number of students in 2013=360}`
`\text{The percentage of students attendance in 2013=95\%}`

Therefore,

The number of students to attend this year's talent show will be calculated by

`A\text{ttendance}=\text{percentage of students}* total\text{ number of students}`
`\begin{gathered} \text{Attendance}=95\text{ \%}*360 \\ \text{Attendance}=(95)/(100)*360 \\ \text{Attendance}=(34200)/(100) \\ \text{Attendance}=342\text{ students} \end{gathered}`

Hence.

The attendance for this year is 342 students
