Question

A school has 220 working days. Ravi's attendance is 85 %. How many days did he remain absent ?

Answer 1

Hi ,

Total school working days = 220

Present %= 85%

Absent% = 100 - 85 = 15%

Number of days absent = 15% of 220

= ( 15 / 100 ) × 220

After cancellation ,

= 33

Number of days Ravi absent = 33

I hope this helps you.

:)

Answer 2

Answer:33 days

Step-by-step explanation

♦ Total days on which the school was opened = 220

♦ Percentage of days on which Ravi was present = his attendance = 85%

♦ So, total number of days Ravi was present,

= 85% of 220

= 85/100 × 220

= 0.85 × 220

= 187

♦ Then, number of days Ravi was absent,

= total days - days present

= 220 - 187

= 33

•°• Ravi was absent 33 days.
