Answer:

90 students are in the class

Step-by-step explanation:

So basically, you need to make this ration fraction equation:

[tex]\frac{1}{3} \\\\[/tex]  - [tex]\frac{1}{9} \\[/tex] = 20 .

you would come up with 2/9 is 20.

Times it by both sides and you will get 180=2x.

Note this x is added so you will get a variable and not get confused.

Then, your answer would become x=90.
