Jackson Middle School has 5 students in choir for every 1 student in band. If there are 58 students in band, how many students are in choir?

To find the number of students in the choir, we can use the ratio given in the problem. The problem states that there are 5 students in choir for every 1 student in band.

Let \( b \) be the number of students in band, and \( c \) be the number of students in choir. According to the ratio, we have:

\[
\frac{c}{b} = 5
\]

We also know there are 58 students in band:

\[
b = 58
\]

We can substitute this value into the ratio equation:

\[
c = 5 \times b = 5 \times 58 = 290
\]

Thus, the number of students in choir is \( 290 \).

The correct answer is \( \boxed{290} \).
