    There are 200 students in the seventh grade.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    For equations like these, you have to use the is/of formula, which is:

    Percent/100 = is/of.

    Since you are trying to find how many students are in the seventh grade, this means that 52 is 26% of the total amount of students in the seventh grade. So, the formula would look like so:

    26/100 = 52/n.

    Next, you have to cross multiply, which means you would multiply 26 by n, and 52 by 100.

    Then, you are going to have this left over from the cross multiplying:

    5200 = 26n.

    Divide 26 on both sides, leaving you with:

    1n = 200, or n = 200.
