The school nurse at a certain high school treated 40% of the freshman class last year. how many freshman honor students did she treat last year?

A) Freshman honor student make up 15% of the total freshman class of 300 students.

B) THe school nurse treated 3/5 of the freshman honor students.

TOTAL CLASS = H+F

NURSE TREATED = 0.4(H+F)

FROM ONE

H = 45.......INSUFF

FROM TWO

TREATED = 3/5 H...INSUFF

BOTH TOGETHER

3/5*45 = 18

MY ANSWER IS C

This question is dodgy, we are talking about last years students, then :

A) Freshman honor student make up 15% of the total freshman class of 300 students.

either this is a trick question or that should say made surely?

INSUFF

Statement 2: INSUFF

Together she treated 3*45/5 = 27 freshmen honor students.
