To figure this out, we need to use fractional proportions.
Currently, we have $120, the amount earned, and 2 days, the current rate.
Our fraction for this is: 120 / 2 = x / 6, x being the amount earned in 6 days.
Let's use a little technique to help us answer faster.
With our current money earned, 120, and our current days, 2, we can divide 120 by 2 to find out how many we earned in 1 day.
120 / 2 = 60.
We earned $60 per day.
With this formula, 60d, d being the amount of days, we can solve quicker.
We are solving for 6 days, so multiply $60 by 6 days.
60 x 6 = 360
Your proportion is :
120/2 : 360/6
I hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:
Convert the sales tax percentage to a decimal by moving the decimal point two places to the left or you can divide it by 100.
This should give you .06
Multiply .06 with the original cost before sales tax.
Add this amount to the original cost to get your answer
C=p+R x p
C=30.99 + .05 x 30.99
Order of operations states do the multiplication first
C=30.99 + 1.55
C=32.54
To get from 40% to 100%, divide by 2 and multiply by 5.
I.e. 40/2 = 20
20 x 5 = 100%
Do the exact same for 102
102/2 = 51
51 x 5 = 255 students
