If ¾ of students who failed the first unit test take the math GIO and 4/5 of those pass the GIO, how many of the students who initially failed the unit test, ended up passing the test? Which answer would solve this problem? Show Your Work In Number Form
¾ + 4/5
¾ - 4/5
¾ x 4/5
¾ ÷ 4/5
To solve this problem, we need to find the fraction of students who initially failed the unit test and ended up passing it.
Let's say there are 100 students in total.
¾ of the students who failed the first unit test would be (3/4) * 100 = 75 students.
4/5 of those who took the math GIO and passed would be (4/5) * 75 = 60 students.
Therefore, the answer is the fraction of students who initially failed the unit test and ended up passing the test:
(¾) * (4/5) = 3/4 * 4/5 = 12/20 = 3/5
So, 3/5 of the students who initially failed the unit test ended up passing the test.
