<PRE><B>Question 947036</B>
The ratio of high school students who were homeschooled to those who attended other schools was three to seven. If there were 90 homeschoolers, what was the total number of high school students?
---------------
3:7 is the same as 3x to 7x where 3x is the number of homeschooled.
------
Equation:
3x = 90
x = 30
------
# of high school students = 7x = 7*30 = 210
-------------
