Last Thursday, each of the students in M. Fermat's class brought one piece of fruit to school. Each brought an apple, a banana, or an orange. In total, 20% of the students brought an apple and 35% brought a banana. If 9 students brought oranges, how many students were in the class

20 students

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Calculate the percentage of students who brought oranges by taking away the percentage of students who brought bananas and apples from the total percentage of students.

100-(20+35)

=45

Step 2:

Equate the percentage of students who brought oranges to the number of students who brought oranges

45%=9

100%

(100×9)/45

=20 students

it should be a and d. lmk if i'm wrong xd
