Solution
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
