[tex] \huge \mathfrak{ Answer : - }[/tex]

60 students walk to school, which is 20 % of the total students studying there,

so, let the the total number of students be " x "

now, we know

=》

[tex]20 \% \: \: of \: \: x = 60[/tex]

=》

[tex] \dfrac{20}{100} \times x = 60[/tex]

=》

[tex] \dfrac{1}{5} \times x = 60[/tex]

=》

[tex]x = 60 \times 5[/tex]

=》

[tex]x = 300[/tex]

hence, the total number of students :

x = 300

Answer:

simple answer 300

Step-by-step explanation:

20%=60 students. 100%/20%=5. 60*5=300 students
