Answer: The total number of students would be 0.10x

Step-by-step explanation:

find the number of students who participated in after-school activities. Since 40 percent of the students participated, the number of participating students is 0.40x.

Next, we'll find the number of students who were in the chorus among those participating. Since 25 percent of the participating students were in the chorus, the number of chorus students among the participants is

0.25×0.40x=0.10x
