Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the information provided in the question it is given as

In a class of 20 students 5 were absent

We need to find what % of students were present

Here it is seen that this question is based on % first understand the Definition of percentage

In mathematics, a percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100. It is often denoted using the percent sign, "%",

As out of 20 students  5 absent means

15 were present out of 20

= 15 / 20

converting to lowest term we get

= 3 /4  

(As both are divisible by 5)

Now finding a value such that if we multiply the denominator to the value it will become 100 also same value putted in the numerator to find the perfect percent

As seen from the final fraction it is clearly indicates the 75% students were present out of 100 %

75%  is correct answer
