Answer:
B. 7
Step-by-step explanation:
60 total fourth graders and 43 are girls. To find the number of boys, subtract.
60 - 43 = 17 boys
If 5 girls were absent, subtract.
43 - 5 = 38 girls present
If 4 boys were absent, subtract.
17 - 4 = 13 boys present
Therefore, there were 13 boys present.
Best of Luck!
Well you can either think of actually dividing the fraction or reduce to lowest forms which is 1/2. then from 1/2 you can either divide that or just say it is .5.
62.5 is your answer in decimal
