Question

Suppose that our section of MAT 012 has 23 students, and the other two sections of MAT 012 have a total of 44 students. What percent of all the students taking MAT012 are in our section of MAT 012?

Answer 1

Explanation

We can deduce from the information that MAT 012 has 3 sections, namely:

Our section, and two other sections

Then, we can also infer that MAT012 has a total of:

$23+44=67\text{ students}$

Our task will be to get the percentage of our section taking MAT 102

Since our section has 23

Then we can calculate the answer as

$\frac{23}{67}\times100=34.33\text{ \%}$

Thus, the answer is 34.33%
