In jaime's math class, 9 students chose soccer as their favorite sport. this amount represents 3/8 of theach entire class. the equation 3/8s=9 can be used to find the total number of students in jaime's class. how many students are in jaime's class?

Well, to find the total number of students in Jamie's class, You need to make 3/8 with 9 in the top of the equation. To make 9 on the top, you also need to change the bottom of the fraction. So, 3 goes into 9, 3 times so we know the top is 9 and because we multiplied the top by 3, what we do to the top we must do to the bottom. So 8*3=24 and the fraction would be 9/24, so the 9 would who likes soccer and the 24 would be the total amount of kids in the class.

SO, there are 24 students in the class and 9 love soccer
