1.How any voted for having the party on the third?
2. How many voted for having the party on the second?
3. The planning committee is expecting 80% of the class to attend the party. How many students are they expecting?
+1975 thanks for making sure i was right CPhill, i wasnt sure about those :)
+1975 a. all you have to do is subtract 62 from 100 so 38% of the 6th grade class voted to have the party on the second
b1. well i thought to solve this one you would multiply 355 and .62 together but that equals 220.1 and you cant have .1 of a kid... so im not sure about b1
b2. subtract b1 from 355
3. i did 355 x .80 and you get 284 students
i appoligize ahead of time if i did anything wrong!

1.How any voted for having the party on the third?
355 x 62% = about 220....again...saseflower is right on the money !!!

355 - 220 = 135 (saseflower has the correct proceedure !!)
3. The planning committee is expecting 80% of the class to attend the party. How many students are they expecting?
Again, saseflower is correct !!
