All other parameters have the same name as described in Testing. "Total" describes nationwide + local. It does not include open schools.

Calculation

Since the original source does not provide the percentage of total students affected by the pandemic, we must calculate it.

It is done using cross-multiplication: <math>\frac{\mathrm{\%\ of\ students\ affected\ by\ nationwide\ closures}}{\mathrm{\#\ of\ students\ affected\ by\ nationwide\ closures}} = \frac{x}{\mathrm{\#\ of\ affected\ students\ in\ total}}</math>

All of this information can be found on the source provided. To obtain the total number of students affected, please hover over the graph next to the map.

A typical calculation inputted into an online algebra calculator might look like this: 69.3/1,213,390,181 = x/1,725,082,528
