Answer:

126 students

Explanation:

In her middle school class, there were 56 students.

That increased by 225% so 56 times 2.25

This results in 126 students

So in Paige's high school class there are 126 students

100% of her middle school class = 56
200% of her middle school class = 112 (56 x 2)
25% of her middle school class = 14 (56/4)
225% of her middle school class = 126 (112 + 14)

There are 126 students in her high school class.
