We have been given that at north shire high school 87.5% of the teachers have a masters degree. Total number of teachers is 128.

Let us find how many teachers have a masters degree.


\text{Teachers hold masters degree }=(128* 87.5)/(100)


\text{Teachers hold masters degree }=1.28* 87.5


\text{Teachers hold masters degree }=112

Therefore, 112 teachers have a masters degree.
