There are 136 students in the eighth grade class, if there are 24 more students in the seventh grade class than the number G in the eighth grade class.

  • Let the students in the seventh grade class be S.
  • Let the students in the eighth grade class be G.

Given the following data:

  • S = 160 students

To find the number of students in the eighth grade class:

Translating the word problem into an algebraic expression, we have;

[tex]S = G + 24[/tex]

Substituting the value of S, we have:

[tex]160 = G + 24\\\\G = 160 - 24[/tex]

G = 136 students.

Therefore, there are 136 students in the eighth grade class.
