allowed to use social media. How many of the students have a
cell phone and can use social media?

Answer 1

The students who have a cell phone and can use social media are 3.

Explanation:

The question is incomplete so the complete question is:

There are 30 students in Mrs. Bailey’s class, and 1/5 of the class has their own cell phone. Of this group of students, 1/2 of them are allowed to use social media. How many of the students have a cell phone and can use social media?

Now, as given in question we need to find the number of students have a cell phone and can use social media.

Now, to get the number of students of the class who has their own cell phone:

`(1)/(5)\ of\ 30.`

`=(1)/(5) * 30.`

`=(30)/(5)`

`=6.`

Of this group of 6 students, 1/2 of them are allowed to use social media.

So, to get the number of students who use social media:

`(1)/(2)\ of\ 6.`

`=(1)/(2) * 6`

`=(6)/(2)`

`=3.`

Therefore, the students who have a cell phone and can use social media are 3.
