When the stranger came into the forest, 37 percent of the people ran to hide. If 2520 refused to hide, how many people lived in the forest?

Is 37% Ran to hide then 63% refuse to hide

63/2520= 37/X
63x= 93240
Divide by 63
X= 1480 Ran to hide
2520+1480=4,000 total --------------
4,000 people lived in the forest
