Answer:
The number of students still need to complete their assignment is 14.
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of student is 24.
It is given that if they have completed their assignment, then they may read.
It is given that 40% of the class is reading. If means 40% of the class have complete their assignment.
[tex]24\times \frac{40}{100}=9.6\approx10[/tex]
The number of student can not be a faction value, therefore 10 students have complete their assignment.
The number of students still need to complete their assignment is
[tex]24-10=14[/tex]
Therefore the number of students still need to complete their assignment is 14.
Answer: 14
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Mr. Torres tells his class of 24 that when they have completed their assignment they may read at the end of class.
40% of the class is reading , i.e. 40% of the class has completed their assignment.
We can rewrite 40% as 0.40 [We divide percent by 100 to convert into decimal]
Now, the number of students completed their assignment = [tex]24\times0.40=9.6\approx10[/tex]
Now, the number of students still need to complete their assignment will be :-
[tex]24-10=14[/tex]
Hence, 14 students still need to complete their assignment.
