Hello there.

There were 196 students that participated in a clean-up event at a nearby lake. this is one fourth of the entire student population. write and solve an equation to find the number of students at this school.

Answer: x is the number of students in the school.

(x)/(4) = 196.
196 x 4 = 784.
Therefore the number of students in this school is 784.

Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck Studying ^-^
