The answer is #95 # people.

To find a percentage of a whole, you take the percent given and divide it by #100# to return it to a working decimal:

#(38/100)# which gives #0.38#.

Now you take that number and multiply by #250 # to come up with the percentage of the class you're wanting to find.

#250 xx 0.38 = 95# people.
