Question

A large university accepts 50​% of the students who apply. Of the students the university​ accepts, 30​% actually enroll. If 20 comma 000 students​ apply, how many actually​ enroll?

Answer 1

Answer:

3,000 students.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, A university accepts 50% of the students who apply and among those 50%, only 30% of the students enroll.

If, 20,000 students apply then the university will accept

20,000 X 0.50 = 10,000 students.

Now, as 30% students enrolls, so the total enroll students will be

10,000 X 0.3= 3,0000

So, the answer is 3,000 students will actually enroll.
