A school survey says that 75%, or 294 of the 8th graders, have a cell phone. How many 8th graders are there?

Answer: There are 392 8th graders.

Step-by-step explanation:

If T is the total number of 8th graders, we know that:

the 75% of T is equal to 294.

Or 0.75*T = 294

then we can solve it for T.

T = 294/0.75 = 392

So the total number of 8th graders is 392

their are 392 8th graders

Step-by-step explanation:

1) divide 75 and 294 by three to get 25% and 98

2) multiply both 25% and 98 by 4

3) you get 100% and 392
