If one out of every 12 students at a school share a locker, how many share a locker in a school of 456 students?

1 out of 12 can be written as 1/12

 now multiply 456 by 1/2

this is the same as dividing 456 by 12

456/12 = 38 students share a locker

set each factor equal to 0

4x-3 = 0

2x-1 = 0

solve for x.

4x-3=0

4x=3

x= 3/4

solve for x. 

2x-1= 0

2x= 1

x= 1/2

your answer should be 1/2 is less than or equal to x and 3/4 is greater than or equal to x

0.32
