Answer 1

Answer:

18 is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are some important numbers to remember:

First, there are 123 students who have signed up for swimming lessons.

It is possible to register 7 students in each class.

We need to do the following:

123/7=17.57. So, we need to open 18 classes since it is not possible to open 17.5

Answer 2

The LEAST number of classes needed for all the students to be registered in a class is 18.

123/7=17.571428  round up to 18
