78 students, which is 30% of the whole class. What is the total number of students in the class?

Explanation

 We are given that 78 students represent 30% of the total number of students in the class.

Let's find the total number of students (X).

Using the percentage formula:


X = frac{78 times 100}{30}

X = frac{7800}{30} = 260

So, the total number of students in the class is 260
