Example Question #2 : How To Find The Part From The Whole With Percentage
A school is made up of 400 students. Each student must belong to one of the four clubs shown in the chart below. How many students are in chorus?
Possible Answers:
Correct answer:
Explanation:
You must first determine the percentage of the students in chorus. To do this, subtract the other percentages from 100: 100 – (35 + 29 + 24) = 12.
Therefore, 12% of the 400 students at this school attend chorus.
To determine the number of students in the chorus, multiply .12 (12%) by 400.
0.12(400) = 48
