There are 800 students in a school and 45% of
the students are male. If 30% of the male students
and 25% of the female students play varsity sports,
how many students play varsity sports?

Respuesta :

Answer:

218

Step-by-step explanation:

No. of male students = [tex]\frac{45}{100}[/tex] × 800

                                   = 360

No. of male students that play varsity sports = [tex]\frac{30}{100}[/tex] × 360

                                                                          = 108

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

No. of female students = 800 - 360

                                      = 440

No. of femal students who play varsity sports = [tex]\frac{25}{100}[/tex] × 440

                                                                            = 110

Total no. of students who play varsity sports = 108 + 110

                                                                          = 218
