Question

51% of a university's freshman class are majoring in Economics. If 4590 students in the freshman class are Economics majors, how many students are in the freshman class?

Answer 1

Answer:

2340

Step-by-step explanation:

4590*.51=2340.9

Answer 2

2341 students are in the freshman class.

What is percentage?

Percentage is defined as ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.

Total no. of students in the freshman Economics majors = 4590

51% students of a university's freshman class,

Let x no. of students in the freshman class,

x = 51/100×(4590)

x = 0.51×(4590)

x = 2340.9

x = 2340.9 ≈ 2341

Hence, 2341 students are in the freshman class.
