the school chorus has 52 students, which represents 26% of the seventh graders. How many students are in the seventh grade

Sagot :

Set up a proportion, where x = the total number of students in 7th grade:

[tex]\frac{52}{x}=\frac{26}{100}[/tex]

Then, cross multiply and solve for x:

[tex]\frac{52}{x}=\frac{26}{100}\\26x=5200\\26x/26=5200/26\\x=200[/tex]

Therefore, there are 200 students in the 7th grade.
