azramirza | How? |
hellboy18 | the way I did it was by multiplying everything by 2 to get the score out of 100, so: 35 persons * 2= 70 50 students * 2 = 100 That means he scored better than 70% of his class, hence 70 is the answer. |
Jmcb | Or simply 35/50 = .7 = 70% |
finnerd23 | This is just a regular fraction, you take 35/50 = 70% |
