There were 45 runners to start a race. In the first half of the race 2/3 of them dropped out. In the second half 2/5 of the remaining runners dropped out. How many runners finished the race?

Sagot :

Answer:

18 racers finished.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the first half, 30 racers dropped out, because 2/3 of 45 is 30. In the 2nd half, 12 racers dropped out, because that is 2/5 of 30. So, in the end, 18 racers finished. (I might have done this wrong i did my best)
