Answer: 112 students are planning to attend college.

Explanation:

Given : There are 175 students in 12th grade at Silverado High School.

A survey shows that 64% of them are planning to attend college.

i.e. proportion of students in 12th grade at Silverado High School are planning to attend college : p=0.64

Now, the number of students are planning to attend college will be :

$\text{Total students in 12th grade}* p\\\\=175*0.64=112$

Hence, 112 students are planning to attend college.
