What is 1.4 x 27 tell me how to show work : (

First you must multiply like normal as if the decimal was never there. When you do this you get 378.

Once you have this all you have to do is move one decimal place to the left.

Finally you get the answer of 37.8

Of the 500 students:

Honor: 205

Got Math Class: 125

Didnt: 80

Not: 295

Got Math Class: 215

Didnt: 80

Lets say our 100% are 205 and 295, for honor and nor honor roll students.

Honor:

125 is x percent of 205

125/205 = 0.6098

0.6098 * 100 = 60.98

In the honor roll students, 60.98% got the math class they requested.

100 - 60.98 = 39.02

39.02% did not get the math class they requested.

Not Honor:

215 is x percent of 295

215/295 = 0.7288

0.7288 * 100 = 72.88

In the not honor roll students, 72.88% got the math class they requested.

100 - 72.88 = 27.12

27.12% did not get the math class they requested.

Using the data we collected, we can assume honor roll students do not have a better chance at getting the class they requested. In fact, we found out that the students not in honor roll had a higher chance of getting their requested class.
