Question:
There are 380 female students in a class. Male students make up 60% of the class. What is the total number of students in the class?
A
950
explanation
Let's use algebra to solve for the total number of students, denoted by "x". We know that there are 380 female students, so the number of male students can be found by subtracting 380 from the total number of students and setting it equal to 60% (or 0.6) of the total number of students:
x - 380 = 0.6x
Solving for x, we can simplify this equation as follows:
x - 0.6x = 380
0.4x = 380
x = 380 / 0.4
x = 950
Therefore, the total number of students in the class is 950.
