Answer:

100

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume you mean [tex]\frac{5}{12}[/tex] of the students in Year 9.

Basically, first you need to work out 1/12 of the students, which is just 240 divided by 12, equals 20.

So, we know 1/12 of 240 is 20, therefore, in order to work out 5/12, we must do 20 x 5, which is 100.
