3:5...added = 8
3/8(2000) = 6000/8 = 750 use brand x aspirin <===
5/8(2000) = 10000/8 = 1250 do not use brand x aspirin
The answer is 291.60 because you multiply 12 x 9 which equals 108 then multiply 108 x 2.70 which equals 291.60
In the 7th and 8th grade combined, there 3+5 girls = 8 girls, and 7+5 boys = 12 boys. If there are only boys and girls, then there are 12+8=20 students in all.
The fraction of girls out of the total is P = 8/20 = 2/5.
