Answer:

14% of the students were absent

Step-by-step explanation:

We can make a proportion find what percent of 800 112 is.

[tex]\frac{part}{whole} =\frac{percent}{100}[/tex]

Using this formula, we can substitute the numbers given, but make the percent x, because it is unknown.

[tex]\frac{112}{800}=\frac{x}{100}\\11200=800x\\x=14[/tex]

14% of the students were absent.
