Of the 345 7th graders in music programs, 35% are in choir, 25% are in orchestra and the remaining are in band. How many 7th graders in music programs are in band?

Respuesta :

Answer: 138

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of 7th graders in music programs = 345

Percentage in choir = 35%

Percentage in orchestra = 25%

Percentage in band = 100% - (35% + 25%) = 100% - 60% = 40%

The number of 7th graders in music programs are in band will then be:

= Percentage in band × Total 7th graders

= 40% × 345

= 0.4 × 345

= 138 students
