Question

There are 207 students in the 9 classes at East Middle School. At this rate, how many students are in 6 classes?

Answer 1

138

Explanation:

You have to find the unit rate so you divide the students to classes because you can't divide classes. After you find the unit rate (23) you can now multiply by 6 because it's the amount of students in 6 classes.

Answer 2

207/9 = 23

23 people per class.

23 * 6 = 138.

In 6 classes, there are 138 students.
