At a high school with 1100 students, jake is in the 70th percentile for height. how many students at the school are either the same height or shorter than jake?

Note that a percentile tells us how many percents of numbers that are above the number at the percentile. So the 70th percentile tells us that 70% of the students are taller than Jake. That means 30% of the students are either at the same height or shorter than Jake.

30% of 1100 would be 0.3*1100 = 330.

So there are 330 students that are either at the same height or shorter than Jake.

221,500 is the answer

The first digit is in the middle school 100s place
