First, let's start off with the information we already have. Since the ratio is 4 boys to 5 girls, there has to be a minimum of 9 students (4 being boys and 5 being girls).
9 will be the denominator of both of our fractions since the boys and girls are in the same class.
The fraction of boys in the class is 4/9 (since there are 4 boys to 5 girls in a class of 9, we would write 4 over 9) and the fraction of girls in the class is 5/9.
This is a simplified version of the fractions. If this is a multiple-answer question and 4/9 and 5/9 are not up there, try multiplying the fractions with different numbers and see what fractions will be correct.
But either way, 4/9 and 5/9 are correct :)
Answer:
A.) nine more girls read 6 or more than boys who read 6 or more books
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's examine the statements ...
a) 24 is 9 more than 15 . . . TRUE
b) 41 is 6 more than 36 . . . false
c) 32 is twice as many as 15 . . . false
d) 24 is twice as many as 48 . . . false
Answer:
Approximately 920.324 p/m
Step-by-step explanation:
so to figure this out, we need to simply divide 6,688 people by 7.267 square miles. 6,688/7.267=920.324.... So we have approximately 920.324 people per square mile
<span>Simplifying
17x2 + -12x = 0
Reorder the terms:
-12x + 17x2 = 0
Solving
-12x + 17x2 = 0
Solving for variable 'x'.
Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), 'x'.
x(-12 + 17x) = 0
