a ski club planned a trip to su valley, and 38 of the members signed up. if 80% of the members did not sign up, how many members did the club have
7 answers
118 members
how did you get that answer
It looks as though Ariana is wrong.
0.2x = 38
x = 38 / 0.2
x = 190 members
0.2x = 38
x = 38 / 0.2
x = 190 members
why would u multiply .2 instead of .8
I divided by 0.2 because that's the percent that signed up. We only know how many that did sign up. 80% did not sign up.
20% of the members is 38. We need to know what 20% of an unknown number equals 38.
