Answer:
The word problem is " In a class there are 8 boys and these are 2/3rd parts of total students. How many students are there".
Step-by-step explanation:
The given expression is
[tex]8\div \frac{2}{3}[/tex]
We need write a word problem which is solved by the above expression.
Word problem : In a class there are 8 boys and these are 2/3rd parts of total students. How many students are there.
Solution:
Let the total number student be x.
[tex]x\times \frac{2}{3}=8[/tex]
Divide both sides by 2/3.
[tex]x=\dfrac{8}{\frac{2}{3}}[/tex]
[tex]x=\dfrac{8\times 3}{2}[/tex]
[tex]x=12[/tex]
Therefore, the total number of students is 12.
