When you're multiplying by a power of 10 such as 100, the decimal point moves two places to the right. Note that this corresponds with the number of zeroes in 100.

If we multiplied by something like 0.001, we'd also be going two places, just going smaller and to the left.

Answer:
2,200 students
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the number of students, create a proportion which is two equal ratios. Since the middle school and the high school are proportional then they have equal ratios.
Solve for x by cross multiplying by multiplying the numerator and denominator of each fraction.
900(110) = 45(x)
99,000=45x
2,200 = x
