Question

In a sports academy,8% of the students were absent on a particular day.if the number of students absent were 4,find the total students who attend the academy.

Answer 1

Your answer=50 students

$\bf{Step\:Wise\:explanation}$

Let the total number of students be x.

A/Q

Absent percent=8% of x.

Absent number of students=4

So,

8% of x =4

8/100 × x =4

By cross multiplication

x=4×100/8

x=100/2

x=50

So, total students=50

Answer 2

HeYo mate !



$<big><b>The answer is as follows :-</big></b>$

Let the total no.of students joining academy be $<b>x</b>$ .


Percent of absentees = 8%

No.of absentees = 4

ATQ ,

$8\% \: \: of \: \: x \: \: = \: \: 4$


$= > \frac{8}{100} \times x \: = 4$

$= > x \: = \frac{4 \times 100}{8}$

Here , 4 and 8 get cut by $<b>2</b>$ .

$= > x = \frac{100}{2}$

$= > x \: = 50$

( As 100 and 2 get cut by $<b>50</b>$ .)


$<big><b>Ans :- There were total 50 students in the academy .</big></b>$
