Answer: there are 5 more girls than boys.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of boys to girls in a classroom is 5:6. The total ratio is the sum of the proportion. It becomes 5 + 6 = 11

If there are 55 students in total, it means that the number of boys in the class is

5/11 × 55 = 25 boys

Also, the number of girls in the class is

6/11 × 55 = 30 girls

Therefore, the difference between the number of girls and boys in the class is

30 - 25 = 5 girls

Ratling [72]

Answer: A. Cost per egg = $4 .

B. Cost per pound = $ 2.5

C. Cost per roll = $ 0.5

D. Cost per apple = $0.35

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula: cost per item = (total cost) ÷ (number of items)

A. 12 eggs for $3.

Cost per egg = $ (12÷3) = $4

So, Cost per egg = $4 .

B. 3 pounds of peanuts for $7.50

Cost per pound of peanuts = $ (7.50 ÷ 3)= $ 2.5

So, Cost per pound = $ 2.5

C. 4 rolls of toilet paper for $2.

Cost per roll = $ (2 ÷4 ) = $ 0.5

So, Cost per roll = $ 0.5

D.  10 apples for $3.50.

Cost per apple = $ (3.50 ÷ 10)= $ 0.35

So,  Cost per apple = $0.35
