All the students in the sixth grade either have pets or do not have pets at home.88%of the students have pets.6 students do not have pets. How many students are in the sixth grade?

There are 50 students in the sixth grade.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that 88% of students have pets which means that only 12% do not have pets. It says that only 6 students do not have pets so we can assume that 12% is equals to 6 students. We have to form an expression for the number of students.

Lets make x = total number of students,

add all the numbers and check the ones place.

the answer is 486. as the ones place is more than 4, the estimation will be the next 10 ie, 490

the answer is 0.3175 hope that you ^w^
