Question

There are 360 7the grade students at eisenhower middle school. One fourth of the students went to clermonth elementary. Of the rest half went to central elementary and the others came from other schools. How many students came from central elementary?

Answer 1

Explanation:

1/4x + 1/2x + 1/4x = 360

4(2/4x + 1/2x = 360)

2x + 2x = 1440

4x = 1440

x = 360

1/4(360)= 90 Clermonth

1/2(360)= 180 Central

1/4(360)= 90 other schools
