hint: part/whole=percent/100
A.100
B.120
C.188
D.12000
B. 120 students
15 freshmen represent 12.5% of the total number of students attending the school dance.
Let x be the total number of students attending the school dance.
So, (15/x) * 100 = 12.5
15/x = 0.125
x = 15 / 0.125
x = 120
Therefore, there are 120 students attending the school dance in total.
