1/12 = 900/x
x=10,800
there are 10,800 people

but non of that matters because it literally tells you that they handed out 900 gift cards so 900 people got a gift card

Answer:

The answer is 75 people get $25 gift cards.

Explanation:

If there are 900 gift cars and 1/12 of them are worth $25, then you simply do 1/12 of 900. 1/12 of 900=75 (just do 900 divided by 12).
