Answer:

250 Students are musicians, 200 are not.

Explanation:

Decimal Version:

If we take "5 out of every nine students are musicians" and make this a fraction we get 5/9. 5/9 as a decimal is approximately 55.555555555556. 55.555555555556% of 450 = 250. So that means 250 students are musicians.
