The correct Answer is:
To find the total number of days the school was open based on Sonal's attendance, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Given Information:** - Sonal attended school for 219 days. - Her attendance percentage is 75%. 2. **Define the Total Days:** - Let \( X \) be the total number of days the school was open (which represents 100%). 3. **Set Up the Equation:** - Since 75% of the total days \( X \) equals the number of days Sonal attended (219 days), we can write the equation: \[ \frac{75}{100} \times X = 219 \] 4. **Convert the Percentage to a Fraction:** - We can simplify the equation: \[ \frac{3}{4} \times X = 219 \] 5. **Solve for \( X \):** - To isolate \( X \), multiply both sides by the reciprocal of \(\frac{3}{4}\), which is \(\frac{4}{3}\): \[ X = 219 \times \frac{4}{3} \] 6. **Calculate \( X \):** - First, calculate \( 219 \times 4 \): \[ 219 \times 4 = 876 \] - Now divide by 3: \[ X = \frac{876}{3} = 292 \] 7. **Conclusion:** - Therefore, the total number of days the school was open is \( 292 \). ### Final Answer: The school was open for **292 days**. ---
