There were 35 students in a class. If 5/7 of the students were present on Monday, then how many students were NOT present on Monday.

Which is NOT an equivalent fraction to:3/4.

Answer 2

Answer:

$\Large \underline{\tt Given} :$

Total number of students = 35

Students present on Monday = $\tt \dfrac{5}{7}\: of \:35$

$\Large \underline{\tt To \: Find} :$

Students not present on Monday = ?

$\Large \underline{\tt Solution} :$

As, we have :

Students present on Monday = $\tt \dfrac{5}{7} of 35$

$\tt : \implies Students \: present \: on \: Monday = \dfrac{5}{7} \times 35$

$\tt : \implies Students \: present \: on \: Monday = \dfrac{5}{\cancel{7}} \times \cancel{35}$

$\tt : \implies Students \: present \: on \: Monday = 5 \times 5$

$\tt : \implies Students \: present \: on \: Monday = 25$

Now, we have to find students not present on Monday :

As, we have :

Total number of students = 35

Students present on Monday = 25

Therefore,

Students absent on Monday = 35 - 25 = 10

Hence, 10 students were not present on Monday.
