170 is the answer to the question
Let sister be s. Matthew, M
Matthew is 7years older than twice the age of his sister
M = 7 + 2s
13 = 7 + 2s. 7 crosses the equality to other side and becomes -7
13 - 7 = 2s
6 = 2s Divide both sides by 2
6/2 = 2s/2
3 = s
Sister is 3 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Girls to boys = 1:2
Girls to students = 1:3
Boys to students = 2:3
Step-by-step explanation:
So, let's subtract the number of girls from the number of students in the class:
60 - 20 = 40
This means that for every 20 girls there are 40 boys in the ratio of girls to boys:
20:40
This can be simplified down by factoring, here we can divide by 20:
(20 ÷ 20) : (40 ÷ 20)
1:2
So the ratio of girls to boys is 1:2
The ratio of boys to students can be calculated via:
40:60
This can be simplified by dividing by 20 again:
(40 ÷ 20) : (60 ÷ 20)
2:3
So the ratio of boys to students is 2:3
The ratio of girls to students can be put in a ratio of:
20 : 60
This can be simplified down by dividing by 20:
(20 ÷ 20) : (60 ÷ 20)
1:3
So the ratio of girls to students is 1:3
Hope this helps!
