Question

Part 1
28 students is 70​% of how many​ students?

Answer 1

To find out how many students 28 represents 70% of, you can set up the equation:

\[ 0.70 \times x = 28 \]

where \( x \) is the total number of students. To solve for \( x \), divide both sides by 0.70:

\[ x = \frac{28}{0.70} \]

Calculating that gives:

\[ x = 40 \]

So, 28 students is 70% of 40 students.
