Answer:

<u>27</u> students are girls.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

There are 3/4 as many girls as there are boys.

In the fifth grade total there are 63 students.

Now, to find the number of students that are girls.

Let the number of students that are boys be x.

So, the number of students that are girls = \frac{3}{4} \ of\ x=\frac{3x}{4} .

Total number of students = 63.

Now, to get the number of students that are girls we solve an equation:

x+\frac{3x}{4} =63\\\\\frac{4x+3x}{4} =63\\\\\frac{7x}{4} =63\\\\Multiplying\ both\ sides\ by\ 4\ we\ get:\\\\7x=252\\\\Dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 7\ we\ get:\\\\x=36.

Now, substituting the value of x :

\frac{3x}{4} \\\\=\frac{3\times 36}{4} \\\\=\frac{108}{4} \\\\=27.

Therefore, 27 students are girls.

How would i anser this select all the ratios equivalent to 4:6
Natali5045456 [20]
If we try to simplify the ratio or try to multiply both by any number, we will get the equivalent ratio


Like :

\frac{4}{6}  \\


Divide ( simplify ) by 2


\frac{ \frac{4}{2} }{ \frac{6}{2} }  \\  \\  \\  =  >  \frac{2}{3}




Or multiply by any number,



\frac{4}{6}  \\  \\  \\  =  >  \frac{4 \times 2}{6 \times 2}  \\  \\ \\    =  >  \frac{8}{12}





From the example, 2 / 3 and 8 / 12 are equivalent ratios to 4 / 6

Find point G on AB such that the ratio of AG to GB is 3:2.
lora16 [44]

Using proportions, the coordinates of point G are given as follows:

(1.8, 1.6).

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct(when both increase or both decrease) or inverse proportional(when one increases and the other decreases, or vice versa), can be built to find the desired measures in the problem, or equations to find these measures.

The points A and B are given as follows:

A(-3, 4) and B(5,0).

For this problem, we have that the ratio of AG to GB is 3:2, hence:

AG = 3/5AB

G - A = 3/5(B - A).

The x-coordinate of G is found as follows:

x + 3 = 3/5(5 + 3)

x + 3 = 4.8

x = 1.8.

The y-coordinate of G is found as follows:

y - 4 = 3/5(0 - 4)

y - 4 = -2.4

y = 1.6.

Hence the coordinates of point G are given as follows:

(1.8, 1.6).
