On Wednesday, 9 out of every 11 students attended tutoring. If 55 students were assigned tutoring, how many students did not attend tutoring

10 students

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

To find the answer, we first know that 9/11 students attend tutoring.

If 55 are assigned, that means that 45/55 students showed up.

This is because 11 * 5 = 55, which means this can be solved fairly easily now.

Since we multiplied the denominator, 11, by 5, we have to do the same thing to 9.

9 * 5 = 45

Now we have 45/55. We know that 45 students out of the 55 that were assigned showed up, but its asking for how many did not show up, so we just subtract 45 from 55 to get 10.

10 students did not show up for tutoring.

I hope this helped!
