Answer:

Percentage = 66%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of students that pass be P.

Let the number of students that fail be F.

Given the following data;

Total number of students, T = 890 students

P = 300 students

To find the percentage that failed;

First of all, we would determine the number of students that failed using the mathematical expression given below;

Total students, T = P + F

890 = 300 + F

F = 890 - 300

F = 590

[tex] Percentage = \frac {590}{890} * 100 [/tex]

[tex] Percentage = 0.6629 * 100 [/tex]

Percentage = 66.29 ≈ 66%

Therefore, the percentage of students that failed or didn't pass is 66%.
