48 students are going to the zoo. one-fourth brought umbrellas. how many people did not bring umbrellas

?

So here you would take 1/4 of 48.

That would be 12 because 48/4 = 12,

Now, if you read the question, you realize that 12 is the number of people who brought an umbrella.

Soo you subtract 48 - 12, which equals 36.

36 people didnt bring umbrellas.

1/4=12

48-12=36

Answer is 36.
