(a)
Fraction of the students that like rabbits and snakes
=
310 +
12=
310 +
510=
810=
45Fraction of the students that liked dogs
= 1 -
45=
55 -
45=
15(b)
Difference between the fraction of the students that like rabbits and fraction of the students that like dogs
=
310 -
15=
310 -
210=
110Total number of students = 10 u
Number of students that like rabbits more than dogs = 1 u
1 u = 5
Total number of students
= 10 u
= 10 x 5
= 50
Answer(s): (a)
15; (b) 50
