Lots of points:

school A has 480 students and 16 classrooms. school B has 192 students and 12 classrooms.
how many students would have to transfer for the ratio of students to classrooms were the same?

thanks

480 + 192 = 672 students total
16 + 12 = 28 classrooms total
672/28 = 24 students per room
24 * 12 = 288 students that need to be in school B
288 - 192 = 96 students who have to transfer
