Answer:

Mr Smith: 24

Mr Johnson: 20

Mrs Jones: 10

24+20+10=54

Explanation:

So I took a random number, and that number was 24.

I took 24 and put at as my testing in Smith's class.

If Mr. Smith had 24 students then, (x-4=Mr Johnson's class) Mr Johnson has 20 students, and half of that would be the amount of students in Mrs Jones class, so that equals 10.

J = Jones

Jo = Johnson

S = Smith

Finally S+Jo+J=54
