Twelve of the students in the school choir like to sing solos. These 12 students make up 24% of the choir. How many students are in the choir?

If 12 students make up 24% of the population, 1 student is 2% of the population because 24/12=2

100/2%=50

I did this because the population would be 2% times # of students = 100%

divide 100 by 50 to get 2 percent or 100 / 2 percent to get 50 students
