<span>With a boys to girls ratio of 8:7, this means 8/15 of the campers are boys and 7/15 of the campers are girls.

We are told that there are 195 total campers.

To find # of boys: 195 (the total # of campers) x 8/15 (fraction of the campers that are boys) = 104  boys

To find # of girls: 195 (total # of campers) x 7/15 (fraction of the campers that are girls) = 91 girls

Note: If you do not know how to multiply by fractions, let me know, I have another trick that takes more time but doesn't require the use of fractions.

#9 - The Question
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

  12

Step-by-step explanation:

There are many ways to approach this problem. I like a method that uses the least amount of computation. We could figure how much Wendy makes on a bag of chips, the additional amount Wendy wants to make, then divide the latter by the former to find the number of additional bags to sell.

We could use a proportion to figure the number of bags corresponding to $126 in earnings, then subtract the 72 bags already sold. Essentially, we will do this, but without the intermediate numbers.

__

The additional fraction of 72 bags will be ...

   (126/108) -1 = 18/108 = 1/6

Then Wendy must sell an additional ...

  (1/6)×(72 bags) = 12 bags

to increase her earnings to $126.

Two friends store 3 cereal bors equally. How many cored bors each person get? Show your work Write an equation &amp; solution: E
maria [59]

Answer:

1 \frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a total of 2 friends, if they have 3 cereal bars and want to split it equally then we simply need to divide the number of cereal bars by the number of friends which would give us the number of cereal bars that each individual will get, which will be represented by x

x = 3 / 2

x = 1 \frac{1}{2}

Finally, we can see that each friend will get a total of 1 and a half of a cereal bar.
