Of the 24 students in gregs class, 3/8 ride the bus to school. how many students ride the bus?

9 students ride the bus.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The total number of students in gregs class is 24 and ride the bus to school.

To find how many students ride the bus;

Let x be the number of student ride the bus.

Proportional is simply a statement that the two ratios are equal.  

It can be written in two ways i.e,   or

Then, as per the given conditions;

x : 24 = 3 : 8 or

Multiply both sides by 24 we get;

Simplify:

x = 9

Therefore, the student ride the bus is, 9

whole numbers.

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the average monthly rainfall (in millimeters) model r(m) for the years 1900-2009 as a function of the month number m.

as we can see m is taken for the number of months for years 1900-2009.

we know that number of months can't be a negative number or decimal number or a fraction.

so, the number of months could be only positive whole numbers.

therefore, whole numbers is more appropriate for the domain of r.
