out of 76 total students, about 23.7 of them currently have a b+ or higher. how many students currently have a b+ or higher?

Answer :

The total number of students is 76, this represents the 100%

To determine how many students have a b+, considering that they represent the 23.7% of the students you cann apply cross multiplication:

100% ______76

23.7%______x

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{76}{100}=\frac{x}{23.7} \\ x=(\frac{76}{100})\cdot23.7 \\ x=18.012 \end{gathered}[/tex]

18.012 students have a b+ or higher grade.
