\n" ); document.write( "let \"x\" be the number of the students in the school altogether\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "if \"12\"% of the students belong to the Drama Club and there are \"66\" students in the Drama Club, then \"12\"%=\"12%2F100=0.12\" of \"x\" is equal to \"66\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so, we have \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"0.12x=66\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \"x=66%2F0.12\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x=6600%2F12\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x=550\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "answer is: a) \"550\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
