Answer:

John gave Fred $48

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x be the amount of dollars John gave fred

y1 be the amount of dollars Fred has at the end

y2 be the amount of dollars John has at the end

Fred has

y1 = - $12 + x

John has

y2 =  $84 - x

y1 = y2

- $12 + x =  $84 - x

2*x = $96

x = $48

a sixth grade class has 12 boys and 24 girls consider this statement: <br />for every two boys there are 4 girls do you ag
Nitella [24]
So the ratio of boys to girls is 12:24.. now, is that an equivalent ratio as 2 boys for 4 girls? or 2:4?  let's see.

\bf \cfrac{boys}{girls}\qquad 12:24\qquad \cfrac{12}{24}\implies \boxed{\cfrac{1}{2}}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{boys}{girls}\qquad 2:4\qquad \cfrac{2}{4}\implies \boxed{\cfrac{1}{2}}

you could start simplifying the 12/24 fraction by dividing by some common multiple, say 2, and get 6/12, then divide by 3 and get 2/4  and stop there.

then you'll notice that 12/24 is really 2/4 in disguise.
