Answer 1

Answer: 324 students

Explanation:

We are given the information that 7/12 of the students like neither superhero nor space movies and this represents 189 members of the student body.

The total number of students that go to this school would be:

= 189 ÷ 7/12

= 189 × 12/7

= 27 × 12

= 324 students
