Answer:

85

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of boys is 5/12 of the students.  There are 75 boys.

To find the total amount of students, divide the number of boys the fraction they are of the students.  When you dividing with fraction, the number that is dividing will be flipped upside down and multiplied by the other number.

<em>75 ÷ 5/12</em>

<em>75 × 12/5</em>

<em>180</em>

There are 180 total student.  Since the fraction of students that were boys is 5/12, the fraction of students that are girls will be 7/12.  Multiply this fraction by the total amount of students.

<em>180 × 7/12</em>

<em>85</em>

85 of the students are girls.

One car travel 56 miles per hour and another travels 31 miles per hour. If they start from the same place at the same time and t
Vitek1552 [10]

After 3 hours, the faster car will be 75 miles ahead of the slower car.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Speed of first car = 56 miles per hour

Speed of second car = 31 miles per hour

Let,

x be the number of hours.

Distance covered by first car = Speed * time = 56x

Distance covered by second car = 31x

According to given statement;

Difference between distance covered by both cars = 75 miles

Distance of faster car - Distance of slower car = 75 miles

56x-31x=75\\25x=75

Dividing both sides by 25

\frac{25x}{25}=\frac{75}{25}\\x=3

After 3 hours, the faster car will be 75 miles ahead of the slower car.
