Let, Enrolled (E)= 12+13 = 25

and No Enrolled (NE) = 16+19= 35

Here, (NE-E)*100/E = x
or, (35-25)*100/25 =x
or, x = 10*4= 40

There are 35 students not enrolled in Spanish and 25 who are. The question can be rephrased as, “35 is what percent greater than 25?” Using the percent change formula:

Percent Change = (DIFFERENCE/ORIGINAL)*100

Percent Change = (10/25)*100

Thus, x is 40.
