How do you know?

Answer 1

Answer:

given,

each school sends 8% of its students.

Woodmore school sends=10 students

but given each school sends 8%  of its students.

so let total number of students be x.

thus

8%  of x= 10

8/100*x=10

x=10*100/8

x=1000/8

x=125

125 is total number of sudents in Woodmore school.

other schools will send 8 %  of their total students.
