The total number of college students was 17.94 million.

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage of part time students = 34%

Number of part time students = 6.1 million

Let,

x be the total number of students

According to statement,

34% of x = 6.1 million

$\frac{34}{100}x=6.1\ million\\0.34x=6.1$

Dividing both sides by 0.34

$\frac{0.34x}{0.34}=\frac{6.1}{0.34}\\x=17.94\ million$

The total number of college students was 17.94 million.
