To find the number of teachers at Curtis school, we can use the students to teacher ratio. The ratio tells us that for every 15 students, there is 1 teacher.
So, if we divide the total number of students by the ratio, we can find the number of teachers. Let's calculate it:
Number of students ÷ Ratio = Number of teachers
1,575 students ÷ 15 students per teacher = Number of teachers
The students cancel out, and we're left with:
1,575 ÷ 15 = Number of teachers
Dividing 1,575 by 15 gives us:
Number of teachers = 105
Therefore, Curtis school has 105 teachers.
