Answer:

[tex]753[/tex] students

Step-by-step explanation:

Last year number of students [tex]=672[/tex]

Increase in next year [tex]=12\%[/tex]

[tex]\left( x\%\ of\ an\ amount\ A =\frac{x}{100}\times A \right)[/tex]

[tex]12\%[/tex] of [tex]672=\frac{12\times672}{100}=80.64[/tex]

So total increase in next year [tex]=80.64\approx81[/tex]

Hence total number of students next year = number of students last year [tex]+[/tex] increase

[tex]=672+81\\=753[/tex]
