To find out how many students suggested a rainbow-themed party, we need to find three-eighths of the total number of students.
Three-eighths of 40 students is (3/8) * 40 = 15 students.
Therefore, 15 students suggested a rainbow-themed party.
To find out how many students did not suggest a rainbow-themed party, we can subtract the number of students who suggested a rainbow-themed party from the total number of students.
40 - 15 = 25 students did not suggest a rainbow-themed party.
To find out how many students suggested a rainbow-themed party, we can calculate 3/8 of the total number of students:
(3/8) * 40 = 15
So, 15 students suggested a rainbow-themed party.
To find out how many students did not suggest a rainbow-themed party, we can subtract the number of students who suggested a rainbow-themed party from the total number of students:
40 - 15 = 25
So, 25 students did not suggest a rainbow-themed party.
To determine the number of students who suggested a rainbow-themed party, we need to calculate three-eighths of the total number of students in Joan's class.
Step 1: Calculate three-eighths of 40 (total number of students).
- We can find this by multiplying 40 by 3/8.
- (40 * 3/8) = 120/8 = 15
Therefore, 15 students suggested a rainbow-themed party.
To find the number of students who did not suggest a rainbow-themed party, we subtract the number of students who suggested a rainbow-themed party from the total number of students.
Step 2: Calculate the number of students who did not suggest a rainbow-themed party.
- Total number of students = 40
- Number of students who suggested a rainbow-themed party = 15
- Number of students who did not suggest a rainbow-themed party = 40 - 15 = 25
Therefore, 25 students did not suggest a rainbow-themed party.
