Let’s solve the problem step by step.
We are told:
> “Based on the data, how many students are in your grade?”
→ The answer written is
64 students.
Then:
> “There are four classes in your grade. All classes have the same number of students. How many students are in each class?”
So we need to divide the total number of students (64) by the number of classes (4).
Step 1: Write the division problem
64 ÷ 4 = ?
Step 2: Do the math
4 × 16 = 64 → so 64 ÷ 4 = 16
That means each class has 16 students.
The handwritten answer says:
“64 ÷ 4 = 16 students in each class” — which is correct.
✔ Final check:
If there are 4 classes and each has 16 students, then total students = 4 × 16 = 64. ✔️ Matches.
