Question

In a class of 50 students, 8 % were absent on one day. The number of students present on that day was ______.

Answer 1

In a class of 50 students, 8 % were absent on one day. The number of students present on that day was 46.

Explanation:

From the question, it is given that, number of students in the class = 50

Percentage of students were absent on one day = 8%

Then, the percentage of students were present on one day = 100% – 8% = 92%

So, 92% of 50

= `92/100 xx 50`

= `4600/100`

= 46 students
