In our school auditorium 1/6 of the students are 5th graders, 1/3 are fourth graders, and 1/4 of the remaining students are 2nd graders. if there are 96 students in the auditorium how many 2nd graders are there

5th graders: x 96 = 16

4th graders: x 96 = 32

Remaining students: 96 - 16 - 32 = 48

2nd graders: x 48 = 12

12 students

*********************************************************************************************

here is a breakdown by grade level:

5th graders = 16, 4th graders = 32, 2nd graders = 12, all other grades = 36
