Answer:2000

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

There are 2000 students at DEO middle school.

Step-by-step explanation:

Well 20% of 2000 is 400.  You can prove this by multiplying 400 by 5, or 400x5.  This also equals 2000.  Now 1% of 2000 is 20.  20x100=2000.  You can multiple 20 by 7 to get 7% of 2000.  20x7=140.  You add 20% and 7%, AKA, 400+140.  This equals 540 which circles back to the amount of 6th graders there are in the school.

Hope this helps!  If I got it wrong please let me know!  Have a wonderful day <3
