The yearbook club had a meeting. The meeting had 30 people, which is five-sixths of the club. How many people are in the club?

Respuesta :

30= 5/6 x the number of people in the club
First step is assigning variables. Let's assign P as the number of people in the club. Then looking at the information given, we have: 
5/6 * P = 30

If you divide the sides by 5/6, which is the same as multiplying by 6/5, we get:
P = 6/5 * 30 = 36

I hope this helped, I tried to help but this is all I knew.
