7 students accepted out of 13 students who applied.
Given: 3248 students accepted; predict number of students who applied:
___________________________________________________________
Set up a ratio; or fraction:
___________________________________________________________
7/13 = 3248 / x ; Solve for "x" ;
7x = (13) * (3,248) ;
7x = 42,224 ;
Divide each side of the equation by "7" ; to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; and to solve for "x" ;
___________________________________
7x / 7 = 42,224 / 7 ;
to get:
