Question

Last summer, a sports club had 56 members. This summer, due to some renovations, it has 25% fewer members. How many members are there now?

Answer 1

to find out how many members are there now in the sports club after the renovation, u need to calculate 25% of the initial number of members and subtract it from the initial number

step 1: calculate 25% of 56 members using the formula: 25% × 56 = 0.25 × 56 = 14

step 2: subtract the calculated value from the initial number of members:
56 - 14 = 42

final answer: there are now
42 members in the sports club after the renovations :)
