Answer 2

24

Explanation:

Let the number of students be A

Given 25% of the students A in mrs Brown’s class like chocolate ice cream and 6 students like chocolate ice cream

Therefore

25% of A = 6

That’s

25%/100% x A = 6

0.25 x A = 6

Divide both sides by 0.25

0.25/0.25 x A = 6/0.25

A = 24

There are 24 students in her class
