Ninety students auditioned for the school play. One-third of those who auditioned were cast, 6 in major roles. What fraction of those who were cast got major roles? Write your answer as a decimal. t

Answer 1

One-third of the students were cast, which is equivalent to one out of every three students.

So, if 90 students auditioned, 90/3 = <<90/3=30>>30 students were cast.

Out of these 30 students, 6 got major roles.

Therefore, the fraction of students who were cast and got major roles is 6/30 = 1/5.

As a decimal, this is equal to 0.2.
