Answer:

27 boys

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of boys to girls is 3 to 6.  The total is (3+6) is 9.

Using the ratio of boys to total (3 to 9), we set it equal to the ratio of boys to total students (81)

3               b

---- = -------------

9          81

We can solve this using cross products.

3*81 = 9b

243 = 9b

Divide each side by 9

243/9 =9b/9

27 =b

There are 27 boys

Peter is making green paint by mixing blue and yellow paint in a cuboid container, shown below. The container has width of 30cm
dusya [7]

Answer: height = 17.5cm

Step-by-step explanation: Peter mixes blue and yellow paint in the ratio 2:3, which means:

\frac{2}{3} = \frac{8.4}{x}

x = \frac{8.4*3}{2}

x = 12.6L

The container is full with the two paints, so total volume:

V = 12.6 + 8.4

V = 21L

Knowing that 1L = 1dm³ and sides of cuboid is measure in cm:

V = 21dm³ = 21000cm³

Volume of a cuboid is calculated as:

V = width*length*height

Height of the container is

height = \frac{V}{width*length}

height = \frac{21000}{30*40}

height = 17.5cm

The height of the container is 17.5cm.
