Answer:

Let x be the number of students in the art class.

We are given that there are 101 students in seventh grade and the total number of students in the seventh grade is nine more than four times as many students as are in the art class. Therefore, we have:


4x+9=101


4x=101-9


4x=92


x=(92)/(4)


x=23

Therefore, there are 23 students in the art class.
