Well first do 20 children minus 8 girls to find how many boys there are:
20-8=16
So there are 16 boys. Therefore we can write the ratio of girls to boys as:
8/16
Then we can simplify this ratio by dividing it by 8 to get:
1/2
So the answer is the ratio of girls to boys in the group in simplest form is 1/2.
Answer:
x = 17
Step-by-step explanation:
Line l and m are two parallel lines cut across by the transversal line, therefore, the angle measuring 53° and (8x - 9)° are interior angles on the same side. Interior angles on the same side are supplementary.
Therefore:
53° + (8x - 9)° = 180°
Solve for x
53 + 8x - 9 = 180
Collect like terms
53 - 9 + 8x = 180
44 + 8x = 180
Subtract 44 from both sides
44 + 8x - 44 = 180 - 44
8x = 136
Divide both sides by 8
8x/8 = 136/8
x = 17
