Class students

3/4 of the class went skiing. Of those who stayed home, 1/3 fell ill, and the remaining 6 were at a math camp. How many students does the class have?

Final Answer:

x =  36

Step-by-step explanation:


3/4 x + (1-3/4) x/3 + 6 = x

3/4·x + (1-3/4)·x/3 + 6 = x

2x = 72


x = 72/2 = 36

x = 36
