To find out how many students need to be accepted in order to have 300 new students attending, you can use the following formula:
Let \( x \) be the number of students accepted. Since 25% of those accepted will choose to attend, the equation can be set up as:
\[
0.25x = 300
\]
To find \( x \), divide both sides of the equation by 0.25:
\[
x = \frac{300}{0.25} = 1200
\]
Therefore, they should accept **1200 students** to ensure that 300 new students choose to attend.
