Students were asked to choose the city they would most like to visit and 5/10 chose either New York or Los Angeles. If 2/10 of the students chose Los Angeles, what fraction chose New York?

Answer:

3/10

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 10 students

5 of them voted either Los Angeles or New York

That means ignore (screw) the other 5 people

If 2/10 students chose Los Angeles,

that is 2/5 because the others didn't choose those cities that are part of the equation (nobody asked about the other people)

So if 5 people chose two groups of cities, and two people chose one city, that meant 3 chose the other

3/10 (remember its out of all of them) Students Voted for New York

Hope this helps :)
