Question

Students out of 40 students in a class are absent. What percentage of the students are absent?

Answer 1

the answer is 1% please check the answer by 40/40=1

Answer 2

EXPLANATION

◉Its pretty simple

Total Students = 40

Absent = 4

Students Present = 40 - 4 = 36

Now Coming to calculating percentage, always remember that Numerator will always be the term whose percentage is to be found and the denominator will be the total commodity available. And the resultant is to be multiplied by 100.

therefore, percentage of students present = 36/40 x 100

Simplifying the above term = 9/10 x 100 = 90%

Similarly % of absent students = 4/40 x 100 = 10%.
