In a school poetry contest, 4 out of the 12 students who entered will wins small prize.Half of the remaining students receive a certificate.How many students get certificate?

Respuesta :

Answer:

1/3 of the students

Step-by-step explanation:

4/12 of the students wins the small prize

so, 8/12 of the students will not get a small prize

1/2 of 8/12 = 4/12 = 1/3

1/3 of the students will get the certificate.

for a number its 4 because you do 12-4 since 4 will win the small prize so now there is 8 students left and the you divide 8 by 2 since half get a certificate and that gets you 4
