[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

The Black, non-Hispanic demographic makes up 17% of the total student population in U.S. public schools. Therefore, if a particular public school has 1,000 students, 17% of 1,000 would be expected to be Black, non-Hispanic.

17% of 1,000 = 0.17 x 1,000 = 170

Therefore, 170 students in the public school would be expected to be Black, non-Hispanic.
