The number of Grade 6 students were asked in total is 100 students.
<h3>How to calculate the value?</h3>
Let the number of students who choose Natural History be x.
Since the number of students who chose the Museum of Math was 50 more than the number of students who chose the Museum of Natural History. This will be x + 50
The ratio of students who chose the Museum of Math to students who chose the Museum of Natural History was 3 to 1. The expression will be illustrated thus:
1/3 = x/x+50
Cross multiply
3x = x + 50
Collect like terms
3x - x = 50.
2x = 50
Divide
x = 50/2
x = 25
Also, x + 50 = 25 + 50 = 75
The number of Grade 6 students that were asked will be:
= 25 + 75
= 100
