Answer:
No Participation: 102 students
Only One Sport: 357 students
Two Sports: 238 students
Three or More Sports: 153 students
Step-by-step explanation:
The percentages represent parts of the total.
To calculate the number of students, we would need to take a percentage of the total.
So for the No Participation group, we would take 12% of 850. "Of" indicates that we would multiply the terms together.
To multiply a %, we first need to convert it to a decimal by moving the decimal point to the left two times.
The No Participation group would then be 0.12 × 850 which equals 102.
The 1 sport group would be 0.42 × 850 = 357
The 2 sport group would be 0.28 × 850 = 238
And the 3+ sport group would be 0.18 × 850 = 153
