Answer:11
Step-by-step explanation:
Boys : girls=7:1
Sum of ratio=7+1=8
Let them number of girls be y
Then they number of boys=y+66
Total number of pupils=y+y+66
Total number of pupils=2y+66
Number of girls=(girls ratio)/(sum of ratio) x (total number of pupils)
y=1/8 x (2y+66)
Cross multiply
y x 8=2y + 66
8y=2y + 66
Collect like terms
8y-2y=66
6y=66
Divide both sides by 6
6y/6=66/6
y=11
The number of girls is 11
Answer: actual length = 45 ft
Explanation:
Scale drawn:
1/2 inch = 5ft
Meaning that if the drawing scale is 0.5 inch then the actual bus would be 5ft.
If the length of the drawn school bus is 4 1/2 inches. We can write:
1/2 = 5
4 1/2 = x
=> x = (5 x 4 1/2)/1/2
Or x = (5 x 4.5)/0.5
x = 22.5/0.5
x = 45
Therefore the actual length of the bus is 45 ft
