Answer 2

`\huge \mathfrak{ Answer : - }`

60 students walk to school, which is 20 % of the total students studying there,

so, let the the total number of students be " x "

now, we know

=》

`20 \% \: \: of \: \: x = 60`

=》

`(20)/(100) * x = 60`

=》

`(1)/(5) * x = 60`

=》

`x = 60 * 5`

=》

`x = 300`

hence, the total number of students :

x = 300
