500 students attend Ridgewood Junior High School. 25% of students bring their lunch to school everyday. How many students brought their lunch to school on Thursday?

Answer 1

To find out how many students brought their lunch to school on Thursday, you can calculate 25% of the total number of students at Ridgewood Junior High School.

First, convert 25% to a decimal:

\[ 25% = 0.25 \]

Next, multiply this decimal by the total number of students:

\[ 0.25 \times 500 = 125 \]

Therefore, 125 students brought their lunch to school on Thursday.
