24 students in a class took a literature test. If 18 students passed the test, what percent did NOT pass?

First, determine the number of students who flunked the test: 24 − 18 = 6. Then follow this equation: x% of 24 = 6 or x% times 24 = 6 To get x%, just divide 6 by 24 6/24 = 0.25 = 25/100 = 25 percent
