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!

What is the area of the kite? (This was all that was given)
lesya [120]
The area of a kite is (1/2) * x * y, where x and y are the length of the two diagonals. In this case, the length of the two diagonals are 10 ft and 2 ft.
<span>Plug that in the equation, we get 1/2 * 2 * 10. We multiply the 2 and 10 first to get 20, that leaves us with 1/2 x 20, which is 10, so the area of this kite is 10 ft squared.</span>
