Question: 1 / 190

What fraction of the class wanted to work with the elderly if 25% wanted to work with infants and 10% wanted to assist general practitioners?

A. 1/4

B. 1/10

C. 3/5

To determine what fraction of the class wanted to work with the elderly, it is important to first understand how the percentages provided relate to the entire class.

Given that 25% of the class wanted to work with infants and 10% wanted to assist general practitioners, we can add these percentages together. The calculation is:

25% (infants) + 10% (general practitioners) = 35%.

This means that 35% of the class has expressed interest in working with either infants or general practitioners. To find the percentage of students who wanted to work with the elderly, we need to consider that the total percentage accounted for must equal 100%.

Subtract the 35% from the total:

100% - 35% = 65%.

This indicates that 65% of the class wanted to work with the elderly.

To convert 65% into a fraction, it can be expressed as:

65/100, which simplifies to 13/20.

However, this fraction was not among the options. Thus, it seems either there was a misunderstanding in interpreting the question, or the correct answer is not listed. It may be possible that the intent was to find a fraction mathematically simplified in relation to the percentages presented
