Question

Coach Rivera placed 14 of his students onsuspension due to failing a class. If he has100 athletes, explain how to determine thepercent of athletes Coach Rivera placed on suspension

Answer 1

the total number of student is 100

the suspended student is 14

let coach suspended x % student that is equal to 14

then

$\begin{gathered} 100\times\frac{x}{100}=14 \\ x=14 \end{gathered}$

so coach suspended 14% student.

$40\times\frac{x}{100}=96$

the value of x will give you the total number of student,
