Question

The grades for 200 students at a middle school are represented in the graph below how many more students earned Cs then Ds

Answer 1

B. 60

Explanation:

There are a total of 200 students here, and 45% got Cs, to find how many got Cs, multiply 200 by 45%, or 0.45: 200*0.45 = 90, 90 people got Cs.

15% got Ds, multiply 200 by 15%, or 0.15 to get 30, 30 got Ds

The amount who got Cs minus the amount who got Cs is 90 - 30 = 60, 60 more students got Cs than Ds
