Answer:
There are 280 6th grade students at Dutchtown middle
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are asked to
calculate the number of students at Dutchtown middle.
Firstly, let the number of students be x.
From the question, 45% of this number which equals 126 went to the Valentine’s dance.
Mathematically, this can be represented as follows;
45/100 * x = 126
45x = 126 * 100
45x = 12,600
x = 12600/45
x= 280
