Answer:
2,200 students
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the number of students, create a proportion which is two equal ratios. Since the middle school and the high school are proportional then they have equal ratios.
[tex]\frac{students}{teachers}= \frac{900}{45}=\frac{x}{110}[/tex]
Solve for x by cross multiplying by multiplying the numerator and denominator of each fraction.
900(110) = 45(x)
99,000=45x
2,200 = x
