Answer:
500 students ride the bus
Step-by-step explanation:
Easy:
If the total number of students is 1250 and you know 40% ride the bus all you have to do is figure out 40% of 1250. Once you get that you will get 500 people. You can use a calculator for this problem.
x/1250 = 40/100
x = number of students riding bus
Solve for x
100x = 1250*4 - after you cross mulitply
solve for x
x = 500
