Answer:
There are 120 students in the choir.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Number of members who participated in contest = 36
This represents 30% of the total members of choir at the school.
Let,
x be the number of total sutdents
30% of x = 36
[tex]\frac{30}{100}x=36[/tex]
0.3x = 36
Dividing both sides by 0.3
[tex]\frac{0.3x}{0.3}=\frac{36}{0.3}\\x=120[/tex]
Hence,
There are 120 students in the choir.
