Answer:
22 fourth graders
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up an equation, with the total amount on one side and the amount per cone on the other. Let x represent the unknown number of students:
[tex]1.47x=32.34[/tex]
Now we need to solve for x. Do this by isolating it:
Undo the multiplication on the left side by dividing both sides by 1.47:[tex]\frac{1.47x}{1.47} =\frac{32.34}{1.47}[/tex]
The 1.47 on the left now cancels each other out. Simplify:
[tex]x=22[/tex]
x equals 22, so there are 22 fourth graders in the class.
