Math Problem Statement

Cage is in a gym class of 45 kids, only 20% of them enjoy playing soccer. How many of Cage's classmates enjoy soccer

Solution

To find how many of Cage's classmates enjoy playing soccer, we can use the following steps:

  1. We know that 20% of the 45 kids enjoy soccer.
  2. To calculate this, we multiply 20% (or 0.20) by 45:

0.20×45=90.20 \times 45 = 9

So, 9 of Cage's classmates enjoy playing soccer.
