  • Total number of students = 35

  • Students present on Monday = [tex] \tt \dfrac{5}{7}\: of \:35[/tex]

  • Students not present on Monday = ?

[tex] \\ [/tex]

[tex] \Large \underline{\tt Solution} :[/tex]

[tex] \\ [/tex]

As, we have :

Students present on Monday = [tex] \tt \dfrac{5}{7} of 35[/tex]

[tex] \\ [/tex]

[tex] \tt : \implies Students \: present \: on \: Monday = \dfrac{5}{7} \times 35[/tex]

[tex] \tt : \implies Students \: present \: on \: Monday = \dfrac{5}{\cancel{7}} \times \cancel{35}[/tex]

[tex] \tt : \implies Students \: present \: on \: Monday = 5 \times 5[/tex]

[tex] \tt : \implies Students \: present \: on \: Monday = 25[/tex]

[tex] \\ [/tex]

Now, we have to find students not present on Monday :

As, we have :

  • Total number of students = 35
  • Students present on Monday = 25

[tex] \\ [/tex]

Therefore,

Students absent on Monday = 35 - 25 = 10

[tex] \\ [/tex]

Hence, 10 students were not present on Monday.
