Answer:

Ratio of girls to STUDENTS is 4 to 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The information given is that there are  12 boys and 16 girls in the classroom. The question is not about the ratio of girls to boys but about the ratio of girls to STUDENTS. You need to add the amount of girls plus the amount of boys to get the total amount of students.

Girls to Students

16  to 28 (12 +16)

Simplify 16:28 by dividing each number by 4

Answer is 4:7

The unsimplified version is 12:16
you have to find the highest common factor in them
in this case it would be 4
divide both numbers by 4 
3:4

hope this helps you

What fraction equal to 1/2 with a denominator of 6 and a fraction equal to 1/3 with a denominator of 6. Then add the fractions.
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2 + 1/3 need a common denominator to add them up.

1/2 is the same as 3/6.

1/3 is the sane as 2/6.

3/6 + 2/6

Add the tops, but keep the same denominator.

3/6 + 2/6 = 5/6

5/6 cannot be simplified, so that's the answer. That's how you do it! Hope this helps!

Is this a function?<br> (4,12)<br> (4,15)<br> (5,18)<br> (5,21)<br> (6,24)
cluponka [151]

Answer:

No this is not a function.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is not a function because some of the x-values repeat, which is not how a function works. For this to be a function, each x-value would have to be different. In this case, the 4 and 5 repeat in the x-values.
