Answer:

Option C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of students of Deerlake middle school that voted = 442

Percentage of student that voted = 76%

Let x be the total number of student.

According to the Question,

$\frac{76}{100}\times x=442$

$x=442\times\frac{100}{76}$

$x=582$

Therefore, Option C is correct.
