Everyone in Andy’s class has to do a science project. Out of the 20 students, 80% have completed their project. How many students still need to finish their projects (got 4 students)

swords jeez dude stop being so mean you shouldn't have a problem with it at least you have the answer

No Ms. Sue is correct because you have to multiply 20 by .80 and get 16

But then you have to subtract 16 by the original number so
20 - 16 = 4
Answer is 4 students need to finish

HOPED this helps

I am correct

Ms. Sue is correct.

for real

Right.

thanks kkb

Ms. Sue is right because the question asked for how many students STILL need to complete their projects, not how many already completed it.

just divide

Yes, you can also divide the original number of students by 5 to find the number of students who have not completed their projects.

20 divided by 5 = 4

So there are 4 students who still need to finish their projects.
