Last part 24x

Step-by-step explanation:

I understand some of this, like the last question. if each class had 24 pupil, and were trying to find out how many are in each class, it would be 24x (x stands for the amount of classes)

You have not given a true amount of pupils so I can not give a 100% correct answer for the first part.
