In the students,
12 of the students like dogs,

- What fraction of the students like lizards?
- Given that 7 more students like dogs than lizards, find the number of students in the class.
(a)
Fraction of the students that like dogs and tortoises
=
12 +
110=
510 +
110=
610=
35Fraction of the students that liked lizards
= 1 -
35=
55 -
35=
25(b)
Difference between the fraction of the students that like dogs and fraction of the students that like lizards
=
12 -
25=
510 -
410=
110Total number of students = 10 u
Number of students that like dogs more than lizards = 1 u
1 u = 7
Total number of students
= 10 u
= 10 x 7
= 70
Answer(s): (a)
25; (b) 70
