If x=girls,
then we have 3x boys.

We know that all children are boys+girls, so x+3x, which is 4x and 4x is 48, so one x is 12.

So there are 12 girls and 36 boys.

There are x girls in the group.
There are three times as many boys as girls, so the number of boys is 3x.
There are 48 children in the group.

x+3x=48 \\
4x=48 \\
x=\frac{48}{4} \\
x=12

There are 12 girls in the group.

Can someone help me with this

Answer:

\frac{1}{18}

Step-by-step explanation:

So say there are x yellow cubes.

Yellow = x

Blue = 3x

Green = 15x

It doesn't say red so I'm going to assume there are none.

\frac{x}{18x}=\frac{1}{18}
