There are 60 players on football team that are not seniors.
Step-by-step explanation:
Method 1:
Given
Total students = 84
Also given that
2 out of 7 are seniors
Which is 2/7
So in order to find the total number of seniors we will multiply the whole number of students to 2/7
[tex]Senior\ students = \frac{2}{7} * 84\\= 24[/tex]
So there are 24 seniors on the football team.
Players that are not seniors = 84 - 24 = 60
There are 60 players who are not seniors.
Method 2:
We can divide the total number by 7, to get how many sets of 7 players will be there
= 84/7 = 12
Now,
Multiplying 12 with 2 will give us the number of seniors in football team.
12*2 = 24 seniors
So,
Not seniors =84-24 = 60
