Answer 1

Answer:

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

then

number of students absent will be =45-36

=9

percentage of the number of students absent will be

=(9/45)*100

=20%

Answer 2

Answer:

36 students out of 45 came to a class.

Find we will find the percentage of present students and then we will find the percentage of absent students.

% of present students = 36/45 ×100

= 36/9 × 20

= 4 × 20

= 80%

80% students were present.

Therefore,

Percentage of absent students

= 100% - 80 %

= 20%
