  • Step 1: Find 25% of the total group of 200 people to determine the number of students.
  • Step 2: Calculate 25% of 200 by multiplying 200 by 0.25, which equals 50 students.
  • Step 3: Now, find 10% of the number of students (50) to determine how many are part-time workers.
  • Step 4: Calculate 10% of 50 by multiplying 50 by 0.10, which equals 5 part-time workers.
