On the day before the `6`th-grade field trip to the zoo, the teachers realized that only `75%` of the students had turned in their permission slip for the trip. If `234` students had turned in their permission slip, how many total students are in the 6th grade?

We know, 100% is the same thing as 1/1 or 1. Similarly 50% is the same thing as ½ or 10% is the same thing as 1/10. Now let us look to see how we can calculate these benchmark percentages. If we have 100%, that is simply a whole number. So 100% of 69 will be 69 itself. Similarly, if we have 50%, that means half the number. So 50% of 70 will be 35.
