Answer:

2472 students

Explanation:

What we know:

- There are 6 schools

- Each school has 412 students

What we're trying to solve:

How many students are there altogether?

To find this, we multiply 412 by 6. Doing this is essentially the same as adding 412 to itself 6 times for each school there is in the district.

412 students × 6 schools

= 2472 students

Therefore, there are 2472 students in the district.

I hope this helps!
