Answer:

See below ↓

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

  • Score of the student on examination = marks scored / total marks
  • Score = 235/300 [Divide throughout by 5]
  • Score = 47/60 [Using long division, approximate to tenths place]
  • Score = 0.783 [Multiply with 100 to convert decimals → percentage]
  • Score = 78.3%

2.

  • Total valid votes = 560 x (100 - 15)%
  • Total valid votes = 560 x 0.85
  • Total valid votes = 476
  • Votes for Magie N. Hawa = 476 x 70%
  • Votes for Magie N. Hawa = 333.2 ≅ 333 votes

3.

  • 108 girls = (100 - 70)% of pupils
  • 108 / 0.3 = number of pupils
  • 360 pupils
