In Mr. Senter​'s ​classroom, 2/3 of the students play sudoku. Of the students who play sudoku​, 3/8 also play chess. If there are 24 students in his ​class, how many play sudoku and chess​?

Respuesta :

Answer:

9 students play sodoku and chess.

Step-by-step explanation:

What do we have?

2/3; play sudoku

3/8; play chess

24; students total

Find a common denominator for the fractions:

2/3x8/8

3/8x3/3

Now we have:

16/24

9/24

This also makes sense because we have a total of 24 students, now we want to know how many of them play sodoku AND chess; which was originally 3/8.

It's 9 students!
