Answer:

350 girls.

5 unit represents 250 girls and the 7 unit represents 350 boys

Step-by-step explanation:

Add 5+7 =12

600÷12=50

RATIO OF BOYS TO GIRLS IS 7:5   SO

50x5=250 GIRLS.

7*50=350

so 5 unit represents 250 girls and the 7 unit represents 350 boys.

Llana [10]

Roberto paints 1/6 of a room in 1 hour.
Julio paints1/8 of a room in 1 hour.

Working together, they paint (1/6 + 1/8) = (4/24 + 3/24) = 7/24 room per hour.

The reciprocal unit rate is  24/7 hour per room = <em>3-3/7 hours</em> per room.

Somebody please help with this problem
Mrrafil [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that AE=BE and \angle1\cong \angle2.

We can see that angle CEA is vertical angle of angle DEB, therefore, m\angle CEA=m\angle DEB as vertical angles are congruent.

We can see in triangles CEA and DEF that two angles and included sides are congruent.

\angle 1\cong \angle 2

AE=BE

\angle CEA\cong\angle DEB or \angle 3\cong \angle 4  

Therefore, \Delta CEA\cong \Delta DEB by ASA postulate.

Since corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent, therefore CE must be congruent to DE.

A sold a commodity to b at 10% profit b again sold it to a at 10% loss. What does a have
ozzi
Let's answer this step-by-step.

First of all, let's estsblish the original price of the commodity as being 100%. Therefore:

Original price of commodity = 100%

Then, when A sold the commodity to B, it was sold at a 10% profit. Therefore:

Price of commidity when A sold to B:
100% x 1.1 = 110%

After that, when B sold it back to A, it was sold at a 10% loss. Therefore:

Price of commodity when B sold to A:
110% x 0.9 = 99%

Hence, A now has 99% of the original value of the commidity.
