How many 8th graders would there be if the team was 36 team members?


If the team had x 8th graders, write an expression for the number of 8th graders in terms of x. (no spaces)


How many students are on the team if there are 12 8th graders?

Answer 1

Explanation:

For the first one, do 24 x 3/4 which is 18. So, there are 18 8th graders on the soccer team if there are 24 team members.

Use the same method for the second one. 3/4 x 36 = 27. There are 27 8th graders on the soccer team if there are 36 team members.

I'm not sure about the third, so I'm not about to lead you on to something that might not even be correct. (I'm legit in sixth grade, and just started doing rsm, but I know how to do the other questions)

If there are 12 8th graders, just reverse the steps. 12 x 4/3 = 16. Check your work by doing 16 x 3/4 = 12, which is correct. So, there would be 16 students on the team if there are 12 8th graders.
