Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Number of people under the age of 20 is 290444

           Also given 290444 represent 28 % of the total population.

Lets take x as total population of fairfax county.

Now, [tex]\frac{28\times x}{100} = 290444[/tex]

we will now multiply both side by 100

⇒ [tex]28\times x = 290444\times 100[/tex]

Next divide both side by 28

⇒ [tex]x = \frac{290444\times 100}{28} = 1037300[/tex]

Total population of fairfax county is 1037300.
