There are 81 women teachers at Russell High. If 45% of the teachers in the school are women, how many teachers are there at Russell High?

180 teachers

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, we know the value corresponding to 45% of female teachers which is 81, therefore, to find the total it would be:

% teachers    #teachers

       45                 81

       100                 x

we apply the rule of three:

x = 100 * 81/45

x = 180

which means that there are a total of 180 teachers at Russell High
