Answer 1

To find the correct statements, let's first analyze the given information:

10% of the total number of students at Park Junior High is equal to 160 students. Mathematically, this can be represented as:

0.10 * Total Students = 160

To find the total number of students, we can rearrange the equation:

Total Students = 160 / 0.10 = 1600

Based on this calculation, we can evaluate the statements provided.

1. The total number of students is > 160. - Correct (since the total is 1600).
2. There are 1,600 students in the school. - Correct (as calculated).
3. The total number of students is < 160. - Incorrect (since the total is 1600).
4. There are 250 students in the school. - Incorrect (the total is 1600).
5. The percent as a part-to-whole ratio is 160/100. - Incorrect (the proper ratio for percentage is part (160) / whole (1600), which simplifies to 1/10).
6. The percent as a part-to-whole ratio is 10/100. - Correct (it is actually 10% which can be represented as 10/100, and is accurate).

Thus, the three correct statements are:

• The total number of students is > 160.
• There are 1,600 students in the school.
• The percent as a part-to-whole ratio is 10/100.
