Question

there are 75 students on the sapphire team and 1/5 of them are in the band . how many students are in band?

Answer 1

By dividing the total number of students on the sapphire team (75) by 5, we find that there are 15 students in the band.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the number of students in the band from the sapphire team, we need to determine what 1/5th of 75 students is. Since 1/5th means one part out of five equal parts, we divide the total number of students by 5.

Number of students in the band = Total number of students on the sapphire team / 5

Number of students in the band = 75 / 5

Number of students in the band = 15

Therefore, there are 15 students in the band from the sapphire team.

Answer 2

15

Step-by-step explanation:

75/5 = 15

This spilts the 75 students into 5 different groups and each one has 15 which is 1/5 of the students
