This i a 2 part question. Change 5% to .05, and multiply it tines 10000: 1000
x .05
--------
5000 Move your decimal over 2 places to the left, and you're left with the number 50.
Therefor, 50 students will be doing further study.
To take it a step further,1000
-50
--------
950 These 950 students will not be doing extra study.I hope this helps.

How should I know?...... They might want to, but they could have no money, they may die, get ill, or just change their minds... :D
However, the number of students who choose to continue onto further study is:
5/ 100 * 1000 = 50

Here is how you would go about doing this.
Take 5% and make it into a decimal (.5).
(You don't have to change 5 to a decimal if you don't want to.)
Next you multiply .5 (5%) by 1000 to get 500. (.5 x 1000 = 500)
Now all you need to do is divide 500 by 100 to get your final answer of 50. (500 / 100 = 50)
I hope this helps. :)

I would guess about 5% out of 1000.

to get 1% of a number, you givide the number by 100.
1000/100 = 10
now multiply this answer by 5 to get 5%
your answer is 10x5=50
