triciaal · Answer

total is always 100%. 2 groups those who like and those who don't like.
75% like therefore those who don't like = 100% - 75% = 25%
told don't like = 35 students therefore 25% of total students, S =35 
solve for S 
like skating = 75% of S  same as S - 35

75 % liked skating. so (100-75) % does not like skating and that is35
so 25 % = 35
find 100 % = ????? = total number of students
find 75 % = ???? = number of students who like skating

arnavguddu · Answer

also not 25 % = 35
so 1 % = 35/25
100 % = (35/25) * 100 = ???? = total
75 % = (35/25) * 75 = ???? = liked skating
