Answer:
8 more teachers
Step-by-step explanation:
Since 15% of the committee are parents of students, 45% are teachers from the current high school, 25% are school and district administrators, the total percentage is
→ 15 + 45 + 25 = %85
The remaining percentage is 15, and it is equal to 6 students. Then, the total number of people in the committee is
→ [tex]\frac{15}{100}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{6}{x}[/tex] → x = 40
Since %45 of the committee are teachers, the number of teachers is
→ 40([tex]\frac{45}{100}[/tex]) = 18
Since %25 of the committee are school and district administrators, the number of school and district administrators is
→ 40([tex]\frac{25}{100}[/tex]) = 10
That means, there are 18 - 10 = 8 more teachers
