The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will follow these steps: 1. **Calculate the number of students taking language classes.** - Given that 65% of the students take language classes and there are 300 students in total. - Number of students taking language classes = 65% of 300. \[ \text{Number of students taking language classes} = \frac{65}{100} \times 300 = 195 \] 2. **Calculate the number of students who have studied more than one language.** - We know that 40% of the students who take language classes have studied more than one language. - Number of students who have studied more than one language = 40% of the students taking language classes. \[ \text{Number of students who studied more than one language} = \frac{40}{100} \times 195 = 78 \] 3. **Conclusion.** - Therefore, the number of students who have studied more than one language is 78. Final answer: **78 students**. ---
