Let's denote the number of seats in band as \( x \). Since there are four times as many seats in choir, the number of seats in choir would be \( 4x \).
According to the problem, the total number of seats available in both band and choir is 250. This can be expressed with the equation:
\[ x + 4x = 250 \]
Combining the terms, we get:
\[ 5x = 250 \]
To find \( x \), we can divide both sides by 5:
\[ x = \frac{250}{5} = 50 \]
So, there are 50 seats in band. This means the number of students that can choose band is 50 students.
The correct response is:
50 students
