the ratio 6/5 means for every 6 boys there are 5 girls.

Add the ratio: 6+5 = 11

Divide class total by 11: 22/11 = 2

Multiply each ratio number by 2 to find the number of boys and the number of girls:

6 x 2 = 12 boys

5 x 2 = 10 girls.


10 out of the 22 kids are girls.


The probability of picking a girl would be 10/22, which reduces to 5/11

PLEASE HELP WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!!!!!! Base the question off this info: An experienced cashier at a grocery store takes 2 second
Vesna [10]
You need to use basic algebra for this.
For this I’ll use o as the items and p for the payment. First you need to find out how long it took for all the items to scan, so if it took each item 2 seconds to be scanned you need to times the total number of items (o) by two e.g. o x 2 = 62 items times two seconds which is equivalent to 62 seconds (1.02 minutes) after this step you need to minus the total time it took to scan the items for the transaction time (2 minutes) e.g. 2.00 - 1.02 = 2.58 minutes.

Hope this helped :)

At a football stadium, 5% of the fans in attendance were teenagers. If there were 10 teenagers at the football stadium, what was
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

200 people were at the stadium

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us represent the total number of people at the stadium = x

At a football stadium, 5% of the fans in attendance were teenagers. If there were 10 teenagers at the football stadium

Hence:

5% of total number of people = 10 teenagers

5/100 × x = 10

5x/100 = 10

Cross Multiply

5x = 100 × 10

5x = 1000

Divide both sides by 5

5x/5 = 1000/5

x = 200

The total number of people in the stadium is 200

9n+21−3n−24 simplify
Thepotemich [5.8K]
Alright First you combine the like terms. 
9n - 3n = 6n 
21 - 24 = -3 

Rewrite the simplified equation
6n - 3 = 0

Solve for n 
6n = 3 
n = 3/6 
n = 1/2
