Salutations!

<span>The ratio of boys to girls in a school is 5:4. if there are 180 students, how many girls are there?

Let the number of girls and boys be 'x'.

</span>5x + 4x = 180
<span>
Add 5 and 4

</span>9x = 180
<span>
</span>x = 20
<span>
Now, multiply the ratios by 20.

Boys = 20 </span>× 5 = 100

Girls = 20 × 4 = 80.

There were 80 girls.

Hope I helped (:

Have a great day!

Firstly we need to simplify it:

We know that 1/25 is as much as 4/100 which can be written as 0,04.

Also 0,04 is as much as 4%.

I hope it'll help you :)

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

The indifference point is 8 weeks.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>First, we establish the total cost formula for each:</u>

x= number of weeks

Club:

Total cost= 20 + 15*x

Retail:

Total cost= 17.5*x

<u>Now, we equal both formulas and isolate x:</u>

20 + 15x = 17.5x

20 = 2.5x

8=x

The indifference point is 8 weeks.

<u>Prove:</u>

Total cost= 20 + 15*8= $140

Total cost= 17.5*8= $140
