Answer:

125 students ride their bike to school

Explanation:

We can set a proportion.

5 / 32 = x / 800

where x is the number of students out of 100 who ride their bikes.

Cross multiply.

32x = 4000

Divide both sides of the equation by 32.

x = 125

125 students out of 800 students ride their bikes to school.
