    1/3 of the students walks

    1 - 1/3 = 2/3 so 2/3 of the students do not walk

    of the student who do not walk 4/5 take the bus

    2/3 * 4/5 = 8/15

    8/15 of her students take the bus

    There must be at least 15 student

    We only want whole numbers of students, so they must be in multiples of 15

    15,30,45,60 etc

    Mrs H has either 15 or 30 students. Higher multiples would be too many students in the class
