3a = 45
Divide 3 to both sides
a = 15

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 2nd most popular country = 15895 students
most popular country = 24390 students
Step-by-step explanation:
Total students: 40,285
2nd most popular country = x students
most popular country = x + 8,495 students
x + x + 8495 = 40285
2x + 8495 = 40285
2x = 40285 - 8495
2x = 31790
x = 15895
2nd most popular country = x = 15895 students
most popular country = x + 8,495 = 15895 + 8,495 = 24390 students
