500 students were asked their favorite sport to watch on TV. 35% of the students like watching basketball, 15% of the students like watching baseball, 30% of the students like watching soccer, and the rest of the students like watching football. how many students like watching football?​

Respuesta :

Step-by-step explanation:

basketball=

[tex] \frac{35}{100} \times 500 = 175 \: students[/tex]

baseball =

[tex] \frac{15}{100} \times 500 = 75[/tex]

soccer=

[tex] \frac{30}{100} \times 500 = 150[/tex]

football=

[tex]500 - 175 - 75 - 150 = 100[/tex]

the answer is 100

By adding the percentages of how many students prefer to watch each sport there is 20% left unaccounted for in the question, being the ‘rest’/football watching students which is 100/500 students. (% divided by 100, the decimal multiplied by the total number of students = number of students)
