At Georgia Connections Academy, 2/5

Question

of the students are in a club. Of the students in a club, 1/4
participate in eSports club. What fraction of the students at GACA participate in eSports?

Answer 1

To find the fraction of students at Georgia Connections Academy (GACA) who participate in eSports, we can multiply the fractions.

First, we know that 2/5 of the students are in a club. So, 2/5 of the students at GACA participate in some type of club activity.

Next, we know that 1/4 of the students in a club participate in eSports. So, 1/4 of the 2/5 of students at GACA who are in a club participate in eSports.

Multiplying these fractions together:
(2/5) * (1/4) = 2/20

Simplifying 2/20:
2/20 = 1/10

Therefore, 1/10 of the students at GACA participate in eSports.

Answer 2

Mr. Brokaw's class has 60 students, 1/4
of the students needed help for an upcoming test. If Mr. Brokaw equally divides the students that need help into 5 small groups, how many students are in each group?

Answer 3

To find how many students are in each small group, we need to divide the total number of students who need help by the number of small groups.

First, we know that 1/4 of the 60 students in Mr. Brokaw's class needed help for the test. To find this fraction, we can multiply 60 by 1/4:

60 * 1/4 = 60/4 = 15

So, 15 students needed help for the test.

Next, we know that Mr. Brokaw divides these 15 students into 5 small groups. To find how many students are in each group, we divide 15 by 5:

15 ÷ 5 = 3

Therefore, there are 3 students in each small group.
