1 1/2 servings are in 3/4 bc 2/4= 1/2 and theres 1/2 a cookie left and if u take half of that it gets to 3/4
First you cross multiply.
2*(b-4)=6b
Then distribute the 2.
2b-8=6b
Minus 2b from each side.
-8=4b
Divide each side by 4.
-2=b
So -2 is your answer.

Answer:
a) 952
b) 136
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Ratio of b:g = 3:4, based on this we have:</u>
- Number of boys = 3x
- Number of girls = 4x
- Total number of pupils = 3x+4x = 7x
<u>Number of spectacle wearers:</u>
- 1/3*3x + 3/8*4x = x + 3/2x = 2.5x
<u>Number of those not wearing spectacles:</u>
<u>And this number equals to 612, then we can find the value of x:</u>
- 4.5 x = 612
- x= 612/4.5
- x= 136
a) T<u>otal number of pupils:</u>
b)<u> The difference in the number of boys and girls:</u>
