Written for the Western Sydney University MESH numeracy preparation workshop for the LANTITE test (Australia). Students are given a proportion of staff who either have or haven't completed their reports. They are asked to find the complement, as a percentage. There are 6 different versions of this question.

{done_word[index]} of the {staff_word[index]} teachers working at Sandy Beach Primary School have {done_or_not[index]}submitted their semester reports for approval.

Did you notice the sneaky 'not' in this question?

\n

There is more than one way to solve this problem. Here is one way:

\n
\n

We are given the proportion of teachers who have completed their semester reports.

\n

As a fraction, this can be written as $ \\displaystyle{\\frac{\\var{done_number[index]}} {\\var{staff_number[index]}}}$.

\n

You are asked for the percentage of teachers who have not completed their semester reports.

\n

As a fraction, this can be written as $1 - \\displaystyle{\\frac{\\var{done_number[index]}} {\\var{staff_number[index]}}} =  \\frac{\\var{staff_number[index]-done_number[index]}} {\\var{staff_number[index]}}$.

\n

To convert this to a percentage, multiply the numerator and denominator by  $\\var{multiplier[index]}$.

\n

$ \\displaystyle{\\frac{\\var{staff_number[index]-done_number[index]}} {\\var{staff_number[index]}}} \\times  \\frac {\\var{multiplier[index]}} {\\var{multiplier[index]}} =  \\frac{\\var{(staff_number[index]-done_number[index])*multiplier[index]}} {100} = \\var{answer}\\%$.

\n

This is the percentage of teachers who have not completed their semester reports.

\n

To find the percentage of teachers who have completed their semester reports, subtract this from  $100\\%$.

\n

$100\\% - \\var{100-{answer}}\\% = \\var{answer}\\%$.
