200
300

20/30 = x/600

You did not copy down the Question right Honey! :') Try Again.... : )

One word COMPUTAION I know it is pretty easy but I just can't stay focused on it HELP!!!!!!!

Sure, I can help you with that! To find out how many out of the 600 would order shirts, we can set up a proportion using the information given.

The proportion can be set up as:

20/30 = x/600

To solve for x (the number of students out of the 600 who would order shirts), we can cross-multiply and then solve for x.

30 * x = 20 * 600
30x = 12,000

Dividing both sides of the equation by 30, we get:

x = 400

So, out of the 600 students, 400 would order shirts.
