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

What is the greatest common factor of 36 and 27
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

  9

Step-by-step explanation:

When the numbers are relatively close together, it is often useful to see if their difference is a factor:

  36 -27 = 9

Checking ...

  36 = 4×9

  27 = 3×9

9 is the greatest common factor of 27 and 36.

_____

<em>How to find the greatest common factor (GCF)</em>

The Euclidean algorithm has you find the remainder from division of the larger by the smaller. If that remainder is zero, the smaller is the GCF. If the remainder is nonzero, it replaces the larger number and the process is repeated. When the larger number is less than twice the smaller, the remainder is their difference.

Please help! Please!!

You can proceed like this,

650 kb for a pic
and 2200kb for song ( 650 + 1550)

total= 18150 kb  and 16 files

so, 650 kb each in both pic and song = 16 * 650= 10400

remaining = 18150-10400 = 7750 , which is contributed by  additional 1550 of songs that is  
7750/1550 = 5

so, a total of 5 songs and 11 pictures were  sold..

hope it helped
