Answer:

673

Step-by-step explanation:

okay so uh this is my way and the answer works so like yea teachers dont show like this but ii figured this works

okay so

85/100 = 572/?

so if you divide 85 by 85 its gonna equal 1 and 1 times 100 is gonna be 100

useing the same concept, it should be the same with 572 , but instead of divideing by 572, divide by 85.

basically 572/85

okay now thats gonna give you 6.72941176471 thats vasically 1% of the population.

so multiply 6.72941176471 * 100

so now you have

672.941176471 and you can round this to 673 kids.

and you know its right since 85% of 673 is 572.05 and you can sound to 572
