  1. Calculate Saylesville sign-ups: Calculate the number of students from Saylesville who signed up.\newline12\frac{1}{2} of 364364 students = 364×0.5=182364 \times 0.5 = 182 students signed up.
  2. Calculate Central sign-ups: Calculate the number of students from Central who signed up. \newline45%45\% of 385385 students = 385×0.45=173.25385 \times 0.45 = 173.25, rounded to 173173 students.
  3. Calculate Northern sign-ups: Calculate the number of students from Northern who signed up.\newline30%30\% of 510510 students = 510×0.30=153510 \times 0.30 = 153 students signed up.
  4. Calculate Lonsdale sign-ups: Calculate the number of students from Lonsdale who signed up. \newline23\frac{2}{3} of 246246 students = 246×(23)=164246 \times \left(\frac{2}{3}\right) = 164 students signed up.
  5. Determine the winner: Compare the numbers to determine the winner.\newlineSaylesville = 182182, Central = 173173, Northern = 153153, Lonsdale = 164164.\newlineThe highest number is 182182 from Saylesville.
