    This question involves reverse percentages

    We will call the students x, for the time being.

    This means that Latrice did: x * 0.25 = 51. Note that I am using the only students that chose summer, this means that there are others who chose other seasons but we arnt given the data. So, rearranging x = 51/0.25. Which equals 204.

    Therefore this means that there are a minimum of 204 students in seventh grade. However, we are asked to predict, so we can say there are 204 students in the sevenh grade

The factor theorem of algebra states that if a polynomial, P (x), is divided by x-a, then the remainder is P (a). Verify the remainder theorem by showing that when x^2-2x-16 is divided by x+3 the remainder is the same as P (-3).
