30 students.....14 are boys...that means (30 - 14) = 16 are girls
if 2 boys are dropped......14 - 2 = 12 boys
and 2 girls are added......16 + 2 = 18 girls
fraction of the class that are boys is : 12/30 which reduces to 2/5 <==
Answer:
Length = 8 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter = 2 x ( length + width )
20 = 2 x (length + 2)
10 = Length + 2
10 - 2 = Length
Therefore, Length = 8 feet
