28 students....ratio of boys to girls is 2 to 5...added = 7

2/7(28) = 56/7 = 8 boys
5/7(28) = 140/7 = 20 girls
so right now, there is 8 boys and 20 girls (8/20 = 2/5)

so lets add 2 boys...making it 30 students
10 boys and 20 girls = 10/20 = 1/2 or 1 to 2

answer is : u have to add 2 boys to get a ratio of boys to girls = to 1:2

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

x=137

y=525-137

y=388

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the student tickets be x

Let the geral Admission tickets be y

x+y=525

y=525-x

4x+6y=2876 (subsitute for y)

4x+6(525-x)=2876

 

4x+3150-6x=2876

-2x=-274

x=137

y=525-137

y=388

Hence, about 137 childern tickets were sold and 388 gernal admission tickets were sold.
