<span>With a boys to girls ratio of 8:7, this means 8/15 of the campers are boys and 7/15 of the campers are girls.
We are told that there are 195 total campers.
To find # of boys: 195 (the total # of campers) x 8/15 (fraction of the campers that are boys) = 104 boys
To find # of girls: 195 (total # of campers) x 7/15 (fraction of the campers that are girls) = 91 girls
Note: If you do not know how to multiply by fractions, let me know, I have another trick that takes more time but doesn't require the use of fractions.

Answer:
Rounded to the nearest integer, the test had 18 problems in all.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a student missed 10 problems on an English test and received a grade of 44%, if all the problems were of equal value, to determine how many problems were on the test the following calculation must be performed:
100 - 44 = 56
56 = 10
100 = X
100 x 10/56 = X
1,000 / 56 = X
17.85 = X
Thus, rounded to the nearest integer, the test had 18 problems in all.
AnswA line can be written in the form y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.
Since the slope is given as 4, the equation will be y = 4x + b
Plugging in the point (2,1) to the equation we get 1 = 4(2) + b or 1 = b + 8
Solving for b gives b = -7 so the equation will be y = 4x - 7er:

Answer:
3.13 kilograms used for the second cake
Step-by-step explanation:
because the fractions have different denominators you have to multiply the denominators together to figure out what to change them too. but instead you can just figure out what the decimal for each is. 1/3 is 0.33, and 4/5 is 0.80. all you do is add these together to get 1.13. so now all you do is add 2+1.13 to get 3.13.
24x___ = 2.4
24/2.4 = 0.1
24x0.1 = 8x3/10
2.4 = 2.4
