Hampton Middle School is expecting 376 sixth-graders next year This 40 percent if the expected school enrollment How many students are to enroll in year?

Let the expected school enrollment be E.

The number of sixth-graders expected next year is 376.

This is 40% of the expected school enrollment.

We can write this as an equation:

0.40 * E = 376

To find the expected school enrollment E, we can divide both sides of the equation by 0.40:

E = 376 / 0.40

E = 940

Therefore, the expected school enrollment next year is 940 students.

Now we write out the argument and find the final answer.

Let x be the total number of students expected to enroll next year.

We are given that 376 students are sixth-graders, and this represents 40% of the total enrollment.

We can set up the equation:

0.40x = 376

To solve for x, we divide both sides by 0.40:

x = 376 / 0.40

x = 940

Therefore, the expected total enrollment for next year is 940 students.

Final Answer: The final answer is $\boxed{940}$
