Hello!

First you have to find what 30% of 1200 is

You can do this by converting 30% to a decimal and multiplying

1200 * 0.30 = 360

360 of the student are bilingual

Next you have to find what 15% of 60 is

Convert 15% to a decimal and multiply

60 * 0.15 = 9

9 teachers are bilingual

Add the bilingual students and teachers together

360 + 9 = 369

The answer is 369

The total number of bilingual students and teachers altogether in the school is 369

Given:

Number of teachers = 60

Number of students = 1200

Percentage of bilingual students = 30%

Percentage of bilingual teachers = 15%

Number of bilingual students = 30% of 1200

= 30/100 × 1200

= 0.3 × 1200

= 360

Number of bilingual students = 15% of 60

= 15/100 × 60

= 0.15 × 60

= 9

Therefore the total number of bilingual teachers and bilingual students in the school is 360 + 9

= 369
