Half of hillary friends Jamie fourth grade class is female including Jamie.How many students are there in all in Jamie class

1 answer

If half of Hillary's friends in Jamie's fourth-grade class are female, and Jamie is included in that count, then females make up 5/10 or 1/2 of the class.

If we let x be the total number of students in Jamie's class, then we can write an equation:

1/2 x = 5

Multiplying both sides by 2, we get:

x = 10

Therefore, there are 10 students in all in Jamie's class.
