Given

There are 240 students in Misty's school.  This is 5 percent of the total students in the school district.

Find out the total number of students are in the school district.

To proof

Let us assume that their are 100 % student are studying in the school district.

As  given in the question 5% of the  the total students in the school district.

240 students in Misty's school this is 5% of the  the total students in the school district.

5% of the  the total students in the school district = 240

For  100 % of the  the  students in the school district

equation becomes

[tex]Total\ student\ in\ the\ school\ district = \frac{240}{5}\times100[/tex]

Solve this

[tex]Total\ student\ in\ the\ school\ district = \frac{24000}{5}[/tex]

Therefore

Total students are in the school district = 4800

Hence proved
