Answer:
605 boys
Step-by-step explanation:
If the ratio of boys to girls is 5:7
and there are 847 girls
we can plug this value into the ratio by doing something like:
5:7
= 5/7
= x/847
Because the ratio has to be the same, we can substitute x for the number of boys and solve by the cross method or whatever you guys call it.
5 x
--- x ------
7 847
The x in the middle is just to show the direction you are multiplying.
the 5 is multiplied by the 847 and the 7 is multiplied by x.
847 * 5 = 4,235
4,235 divided by 7 is 605
605 is your answer.
The cross method can be used in most situations.
* is used to represent multiplication btw

Answer:
- arc BF = 76°
- ∠M = 31°
- ∠BGE = 121°
- ∠MFB = 111°
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) ∠FBM is the complement of ∠FBC, so is ...
∠FBM = 90° -52° = 38°
The measure of arc BF is twice this angle, so is ...
arc BF = 2∠FBM = 2(38°)
arc BF = 76°
__
(b) ∠M is half the difference between the measures of arcs BE and BF, so is ...
∠M = (1/2)(138° -76°) = 62°/2
∠M = 31°
__
(c) arc FC is the supplement to arc BF, so has measure ...
arc FC = 180° -arc BF = 180° -76° = 104°
∠BGE is half the sum of arcs BE and FC, so is ...
∠BGE = (1/2)(arc BE +arc FC) = (138° +104°)/2
∠BGE = 121°
__
(d) ∠MFB is the remaining angle in ∆MFB, so has measure ...
∠MFB = 180° -∠M -∠FBM = 180° -31° -38°
∠MFB = 111°
