about 56% of the 2,553 students are enrolled in at least one honors class. how many students are enrolled in an honors class?

Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Convert percentage to decimal

To find (56%) of (2553), first convert (56%) to a decimal. (56%=\frac{56}{100} = 0.56)

Step2: Multiply the decimal by the total number of students

Multiply (0.56) by (2553). (0.56\times2553=(0.5 + 0.06)\times2553=0.5\times2553+0.06\times2553) (0.5\times2553 = 1276.5) and (0.06\times2553=153.18) (1276.5+153.18 = 1429.68\approx1430)

Answer:

(1430)
