The fourth grade has 102 students.it has three times as many students as Mrs pride class.how many students are in Mrs pride class?
this is very simple im an 8th grader in algebra 1 and this is just a piece of cake
u need to write an equation,
total:102 students
4th grade class:3x
mrs prides class:x
this is a division prob. so ur eq should be 3x=102
x=102/3
x= 34
good luck, hoped this helped u!!!!!:)
102=3x
Divide by 3 on both sides
34=x
To find out how many students are in Mrs. Pride's class, we need to compare the number of students in the fourth grade class to Mrs. Pride's class.
Let's assume the number of students in Mrs. Pride's class is "x".
According to the given information, the fourth grade has three times as many students as Mrs. Pride's class. So we can write the equation:
Number of students in fourth grade = 3 * Number of students in Mrs. Pride's class
Rearranging the equation, we have:
102 (students in fourth grade) = 3 * x (students in Mrs. Pride's class)
To solve for x, we divide both sides of the equation by 3:
102 / 3 = x
x = 34
Therefore, there are 34 students in Mrs. Pride's class.
