Let X = total students in musical


 

Then (1/3) X = number of seniors


 

  1 + 6 + 11 + (1/3)X = X


 

              18 + (1/3)X = X


 

                           18 = (2/3)X


 

                 (3/2)(18) = X


 

                          27 = X


 

27 students in musical of which one third are seniors,  

there are 9 seniors in musical


hope this helped!
