Question

there was a vote at a local school to determine a new logo. You are told 7% of the students wanted to keep the old logo, and that 7% represents 1,400 students at the school. how many students are at the school?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Let the number of students be x,

Now,

7% of x = 1400

or, 7/100 X x = 1400

or, x = 1400 x 100

—————

7

or, x = 140000/ 7

or, x = 20000

Thus, there are 20,000 students
