D: None of the above

Y’all help me plz

A

Step-by-step explanation:

So if 45 students represent 1/5 of the school, and x is the number of students in the school, then 45 will simply represent 1/5 of x.

This means that the equation is 1/5x = 45.

Now, you have to solve the equation.

Multiply both sides of the equation by 5

This means that there are 225 students.
