Answer:96

Step-by-step explanation:

A; 480/16 = 30 students per classroom

B: 192/12 =16 students per classroom

we need x such that [tex]\frac{480-x}{16} = \frac{192+x}{12}[/tex]

which means

(480-x )* 12 should be equal to (192+x) * 16

5,760 - 12x = 3,072+16x

5,760 - 3,072 = 12x + 16x

2,688 = 28x

x = 96
