There are 96 students in a speech contest. Yesterday, 1/4 of them gave their speeches. Today, 1/8 of the remaining students gave their speeches. How many students still haven't given their speeches?

Respuesta :

5/8 still havent given their speech or 60 students
yesterdays ratio of people that gave their speech= 1/4 x 96
= 24 people
96 - 24= 72
72 people are yet to give their speech
today's ratio of people that gave their speech = 1/8 x 72
= 9 people
the number of students that havent given their speech is 72 - 9 = 63 people
