Answer: 64 students


Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Total students in English class= 100

Nine twenty-fifths of the class did not like the book.

⇒ [tex]\frac{9}{25}[/tex] of class did not like the book.

Thus, the number of students did not like the book=[tex]\frac{9}{25}\times100=36[/tex]

Therefore, the number of students like the book =Total students- students did not like the book

=100-36=64 students.

The number of students like the book =64
