Answer:

4:7

20 divided by 4 = 5

So 5X7= 35.

There are now 35 girls in the club.

New ratio: 20:35

Simplify it.

The simplest form of 20/35 is 4/7.

This IS NOT A TYPO. This IS NOT INCORRECT.

Since we multiplied by 5, and both 20 and 35 are divisible by 5, is will always be 4/7 if you multiply it by 5 in simplest terms.

One more boy joins.

Now the ratio is 5/7.

5/7 cannot be simplified, therefore, 5/7 simplified is 5/7.

Hope this helps!!

Which is a characteristic of a feudal society?
Triss [41]

Answer:

4.  Rigid Class Structure

Explanation:

A feudal society has ranks, such as peasants, merchants, knights, and kings.  Feudal societies were often replaced by industrialization, and did not experience rapid social change.  In addition, most people below merchants could not read, which was the majority of people, contributing to a low literacy rate.  However, feudal societies did have extremely rigid class structure that deemed rights as appropriate due to people's classes.
