Answer 2

2,200 students

Explanation:

To find the number of students, create a proportion which is two equal ratios. Since the middle school and the high school are proportional then they have equal ratios.

`(students)/(teachers)= (900)/(45)=(x)/(110)`

Solve for x by cross multiplying by multiplying the numerator and denominator of each fraction.

900(110) = 45(x)

99,000=45x

2,200 = x
