The total number of students in the school is calculated as; 600 students

<h3>How to find fraction of a total?</h3>

Usually, some figures are expressed as a fraction of a whole as depicted in this case. Thus, when we are given a fraction of a whole to be equal to a particular figure, we will just cross multiply to get the total number.

We are told that;

Number of students that play a team sport at Lincoln high school = 225

Now, we are told that the number above represents a fraction of 3/8 of the total students in that school.

Thus, if the total number of students in the school is x, then we can say that;

(3/8)x = 225

Multiply both sides by 8 to get;

3x = 1800

x = 1800/3

x = 600 students

Thus, we can conclude that if two hundred and twenty five students play a team sport at Lincoln high school and these students represent 3/8 of the total, then we can say that the total number of students in the school is 600 students.

Answer:

2/3
