Answer: 280</h3>
Work Shown:
x = number of students in the 6th grade class
30% = 30/100 = 0.30
30% of x = 0.30x this is equal to 84 since "30% of the 6th graders are boys (and there are 84 boys in sixth grade)", so we say 0.30x = 84
Divide both sides by 0.30 to isolate x
0.30x = 84
0.30x/0.30 = 84/0.30
x = 280
So there are 280 students overall in the 6th grade class.
The speed of the car per minute is 3,520 feet (choice c). This is because in order to solve the problem, you have to convert 40 mi/h into feet. Since there are 5,280 feet per mile, you have to do 5,280 x 40, which is 211,200, which is the number of feet per hour. But, the question is asking for ft/min. There are 60 minutes in an hour, so you divide 211,200 by 60, which is 3,520. So, the speed of the car per minute is 3,520 feet.
