Question

In Mr. Siegel’s class, 15% of the students are in the Scrapbooking Club and 45% are in the Cooking Club. His remaining students are in the Board Game Club.

Drag numbers to the table to express the percent of students in each club as a fraction and a decimal.

Answer 1

Explanation:

15% = 15/100= 0.15

45% = 45/100 = o.45

Remaining students: 40% = 40/100 = 0.4%

Answer 2

Fill in the table with the fractions and decimals:

club fraction decimal

Scrapbooking 15/100 0.15

cooking 45/100 0.45

Board Game 40/100 0.40

Let's denote the percentage of students in the Board Game Club as x.

The total percentage of students in all three clubs should add up to

100%.

Therefore, we can set up the equation:

15%+45%+x%=100%

Solving for x:

60%+x%=100%

x%=100%−60%

x%=40%

Now, let's fill in the table with the fractions and decimals:

club fraction decimal

Scrapbooking 15/100 0.15

cooking 45/100 0.45

Board Game 40/100 0.40
