Out of a class of 45 student 2/3 went on a picnic how many students stayed in school solve the multification fraction
well, 1/3 stayed, right?
so, 1/3 * 45 = ?
1/3 * 45 = ?
To solve this problem, we need to multiply the fraction 2/3 by the total number of students in the class.
First, let's find the total number of students who went on a picnic. To do this, we multiply 45 (total number of students) by 2/3:
45 * (2/3) = (45 * 2) / 3 = 90 / 3 = 30
So, 30 students went on a picnic.
To find the number of students who stayed in school, we subtract the number of students who went on a picnic from the total number of students:
45 - 30 = 15
Therefore, 15 students stayed in school.
