0.8 of pupils attended school today. If 720 pupils attended school. Find the total number of pupils

1 answer

If 0.8 of pupils attended school today and 720 pupils attended school, we can set up the equation:

0.8 x Total number of pupils = 720

Dividing both sides by 0.8 gives:

Total number of pupils = 720 / 0.8 = 900

Therefore, the total number of pupils is 900.
