Answer:

There are 250 students in the 6th grade.

Step-by-step explanation:

[] Let us do "number of students" over the percentage. We will use x as the total number of students in the 6th grade.

-> 35% and 100% can be divided by 100 to become decimals

Set up a proportion:

[tex]\frac{85}{0.34} =\frac{x}{1}[/tex]

Cross multiply:

85 = 0.34x

Divide both sides by 0.34:

250 = x

Reflexive property:

x = 250

Have a nice day!
