Dear Student,

Please find below the solution to the asked query:

Given : A math class has 27 students in it. Of those students 14 are also enrolled in history and 17 are enrolled in English.

So,

14 + 17 = 31

Then ,

Minimum number of students must be enrolled in history and English both = 31 - 27 = 4 

Therefore,

Minimum percentage of students must be enrolled in history and English both = $\frac{4}{27}\times 100 = \frac{400}{27} = 14.8148 \approx \mathbf{ }\mathbf{15}\mathbf{ }\mathbf{\%}\mathbf{ }\mathbf{ }\mathbf{ }\mathbf{ }\mathbf{ }\mathbf{ }\mathbf{ }\mathbf{ }\mathbf{ }\mathbf{ }\mathbf{ }\mathbf{ }\mathbf{ }\mathbf{ }\mathbf{ }\mathbf{ }\mathbf{ }\mathbf{ }\mathbf{ }\mathbf{ }\mathbf{ }\mathbf{ }\mathbf{ }\mathbf{ }\mathbf{(}\mathbf{ }\mathbf{Ans}\mathbf{ }\mathbf{)}$
