Given the statement:

Of the 95 children in 6th grade,3/5 went to holiday parties.

Determine  how many students went to holiday parties.

Solution:

In order to determine how many students went to holiday parties, we simply need to take 3/5 of 95, this can be done by multiplying 95 by 3 and dividing the product by 5.

= (3/5)(95)

= 285/5

= 57

Final answer:

57 children went to holiday parties.
