Answer :
[tex]From\ proportion:\\
30\ students\ 17\ dogs\\
300\ students\ x\ dogs\\\\Cross\ multiplication\\
30x=300*17\\
30x=5100\ \ \ | divide\ by\ 30\\
x=170\\\\
There\ will\ be\ 170\ dogs\ for\ 300\ students.[/tex]
17 / 30 = x / 300
cross multiply
30x = 5,100
divide by 30
x = 170
or
[tex] \frac{17}{30} * 10 = \frac{170}{300} [/tex]
