In which grade is the mean number of students per homeroom greater: the seventh or the eighth? How much greater?

Answer 1

the total number of boxes of popcorn sold by the seventh-grade classes is 12.

Explanation:

1. Calculate the total number of boxes sold by Teacher Todd:

Boxes sold by Todd = 12

2. Calculate the total number of boxes sold by Teacher Davis:

Boxes sold by Davis = 0 (since the table is incomplete and doesn't provide this information)

3. Calculate the total number of boxes sold by the seventh-grade class:

Total boxes sold = Boxes sold by Todd + Boxes sold by Davis

= 12 + 0

= 12
