To find the number of 6th graders who aren't planning on going to the dance, we can first find the number of students who are planning to attend.
35% of 280 6th graders is:
0.35 * 280 = 98
So, 98 students are planning to attend the Spring Dance.
The number of students who aren't planning to attend is:
280 - 98 = 182
Therefore, 182 6th graders aren't planning on going to the dance.
Of the 280 students in Grade 6, 35% plan to attend the Spring Dance. How many 6th graders aren’t planning on going to the dance?
