Q
Q: A military base has 120 soldiers. If 30% of them are on leave, how many soldiers are present? (2019)
Solution:
Soldiers on leave = 30% of 120 = 0.3 × 120 = 36. Present = 120 - 36 = 84.
Steps: 5
Show Steps
Step 1: Start with the total number of soldiers, which is 120.
Step 2: Calculate 30% of 120 to find out how many soldiers are on leave. To do this, multiply 120 by 0.3 (which is the decimal form of 30%).
Step 3: Perform the multiplication: 0.3 × 120 = 36. This means 36 soldiers are on leave.
Step 4: To find out how many soldiers are present, subtract the number of soldiers on leave from the total number of soldiers: 120 - 36.
Step 5: Perform the subtraction: 120 - 36 = 84. So, there are 84 soldiers present.
