Final answer:
In a school of 1,100 students, if only 53% attend during a winter storm, 583 students make it to class while 517 do not.
Step-by-step explanation:
During a winter storm, when only 53% of students attend classes and there are 1,100 students in the school, we can calculate the number of students who make it to class as well as those who do not. First, we calculate the number who attend by multiplying 1,100 by 0.53, which equals 583 students. Next, we subtract this number from the total number of students to find those who did not attend, which is 1,100 - 583, giving us 517 students.
