Answer:

5/12 of the students are freshmen.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n represent the total number of students.

Then (1/6)n are seniors; (2  1/2)(1/6)n are freshmen, or

(1/6)n are seniors and 5/12 are freshmen.  This comes from multiplying 2.5 by 1/6:  we get .416666..., which is equivalent to 5/12.
