Answer:
There are 60 6th graders in band.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of 6th graders in band. If there are 25% more in 7th grade, you can write it as (5/4)x. (You could also say 1.25x, but I think fractions would be easier in this situation.) Set up an equation:
x+(5/4)x=135
Now solve for x.
(4/4)x+(5/4)x=135
(9/4)x=135
(1/4)x=15
x=60
