I am genuinely lost pls dont give me pdfs or links There are 25% more 7th graders than 6th graders in band. If there are 135 total 6th and 7th graders in the school band, how many 6th graders are in band?

There are 60 6th graders in band.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of 6th graders in band. If there are 25% more in 7th grade, you can write it as (5/4)x. (You could also say 1.25x, but I think fractions would be easier in this situation.) Set up an equation:

x+(5/4)x=135

Now solve for x.

(4/4)x+(5/4)x=135

(9/4)x=135

(1/4)x=15

x=60

There are 60 6th graders in band.
