The ratio of teachers to students in another school is 4:55. There are 28 teachers

in the school, how many students are there?

how about you try one now?

1.478 To find the number of students in the school, we need to use the given ratio of teachers to students. The ratio of teachers to students is 4:55, which means that for every 4 teachers, there are 55 students.

We are also given that there are 28 teachers in the school. To find the number of students, we can set up a proportion:

4 teachers / 55 students = 28 teachers / x students

To solve for x, we can cross-multiply and then divide:

4x = 55 * 28

First, multiply 55 by 28:

4x = 1540

Next, divide both sides by 4:

x = 1540 / 4

Simplifying the division gives us:

x = 385

Therefore, there are 385 students in the school.
