    750 total students

    To find the number of boys you take 420/56. This would tell you the number of students per 1 percent. This would give 7.5 people per 1 percent. Then tale 7.5 times the remaining 44% and that would equal 330 boys in the school. Add boys plus girls and that would get you the 750 total students.
