Answer:

Approximately 177 boys

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of boys

y ----> the number of girls

we know that

\frac{x}{y}=\frac{7}{9}

isolate the variable x

x=\frac{7}{9}y ----> equation A

y=228 ----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A

x=\frac{7}{9}(228)

x=177.33

therefore

Approximately 177 boys

4x = 16

Divide both sides by 4;

x = 4
