The ratio is 2:3
So you replace the 2 with 16 because that’s the number of girls.

2:3 and be rewritten as 2/3
So 16:x (unknown number of boys can be written as 16/x. No you just solve for x so that both fractions are equivalent.

2 times 8 is 16, so that’s the relationship between the numerator. Whatever you do to the top is done to the bottom, so 3 times 8 is 24.

Now you have the complete fraction: 16/24. This can be rewritten as the ratio: 16:24
Those are the numbers of boys and girls separately- now you just need to add them to get the total number of kids in the class.

16+24=40 students

DanielleElmas [232]

The best answer for this question would be:

 

D. 32

 

In order to get this, you have to get the sum in the line, which is the first four people. So the solution would be: 4(23) = 92

 

For getting the sum of the people in the last 3 would be: 3(34) = 102

 

Next is the sum of everyone which the solution would be: 6(27) = 162

 

So the initial solution that we have now would be: F + 92 - F + 102- F = 162

 

- F + 194 = 162

 

- F = 162 - 194

 

- F = - 32

 

The (F) here or the fourth person’s age would be= -32 / - 1 or 32
