Answer:

9 students ride the bus.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The total number of students in gregs class is 24 and \frac{3}{8} ride the bus to school.

To find how many students ride the bus;

Let x be the number of student ride the bus.

Proportional is simply a statement that the two ratios are equal.  

It can be written in two ways i.e,   \frac{a}{b} = \frac{c}{d} or

a : b :: c :d

Then, as per the given conditions;

x : 24 = 3 : 8 or

\frac{x}{24} = \frac{3}{8}

Multiply both sides by 24 we get;

\frac{x}{24} \times 24 =\frac{3}{8} \times 24

Simplify:

x = 9

Therefore, the student ride the bus is, 9
