Question

I'm pretty sure I know the answer, but I've been wrong on these questions before...
A school choir has 36 members. There are three times as many underclassmen as seniors. How many seniors are in the choir?
9 seniors
12 seniors
24 seniors
27 seniors

Answer 1

What do you think the answer is even if you're to reluctant on that choice?

Answer 2

Hint: if there are x seniors there are 3x underclassmen

Answer 3

I think it's A, because(the way I'm seeing it) there are four parts to this. 3 being the underclassmen and 1 being the seniors. So you just divide 36 by 4 and get 9. 9 is one part, since the seniors are one part, that is the answer.

Answer 4

That's what I think so also!
