Step-by-step explanation:

108 = 60%

1% = 60%/60 = 108/60 = 1.8

100% = 1%×100 = 1.8×100 = 180

how many do not study French ?

the remainder of the students. that is 40% (100% - 60%) or 72 students (40×1.8 or simply 180-108).

Answer:

72 students do not study French.

Step-by-step explanation:

60% = 108 students

1. 108 ÷ 60 = 1.8 ( this is to find 1% of the students)

2. 1.8(1%) × 40 = 72

To check the answer:

108 + 72 = 180

180 × 60% = 108
