The number of students taking algebra increased 20% in one year. If
60 students are taking algebra this year, how many took algebra last
year?

Answer :

Answer: 50 students

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that the number of students last year plus 20% of that number equals the number of students this year, which can be written as: x + 0.2x = 60 →

1.2x = 60 → x = 50 students :)
