Use the Pythagoras' Theorem:

A^2 + B^2 = C^2

20^2 + 35^2 = C^2

400+ 1225=1625=C^2

square root of 1625= C = 40.31 km

First, let's declare a variable

x = # of students

Now, let's create an equation to model the problem.

x * 0.273 = 125

Divide both sides by 0.273

x = 457.8 = 458 students.

Note, I rounded to the nearest whole number.
