Starting weight: 5/6 lb. Of this, Jan used 1/5, which would be (1/5)(5/6) lb,
or 1/6 lb, leaving 4/6 lb, or 2/3 lb. unused.
2/3 lb
Now divide 2/3 lb by 8 portions: ----------------- = (2/24) lb/portion, or
8 portions
1/12 lb/portion.
12x3=36 That is the equation
The distance between -4/12 and 9 is
-369/2
Step 1 :

Equation at the end of step 1 :
41
((((0 - ——) • a) • n) • d) • 9

Step 2 :
Final result :

Total: 54
Boys: 36
Girls: x
54 - 36 = x
x = 18
There would be 18 girls at the swim meet
