Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the common denominator, in this case 48. Divide 48 by each denominator and multiply that answer to the numerator. You get (48/16)x5, (48/12)x5 and (48/8)x3. So, 3x5, 4x5, and 5x5. So, 15,20, and 25. Then put these over your new common denominator of 48. So you get 15/48, 20/48, and 25/48. Then you can just order them like this, 15/48,20/48,25/48.

Easiest way: Another way is just to type each into your calculator and put the decimals in order of greatest to smallest. So divide 5 by 16. 5 by 12. And 3 by 8.

5/16=.3125

5/12=.4166

3/8=.375.

Then put in order.

in a school gym, the ratio of the number of boys to the number of girls was 4:3 . after 160 boys left the gym, the ratio became
Annette [7]

Answer:

300 girls were there in the gym.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The ratio of the number of boys to the number of girls was 4:3, after 160 boys left the gym, the ratio became 4:5.

Now, to find the number of girls in the gym.

The girls in the gym does not left, their quantity is same before and after.

So, we multiply the both ratios to make the girls ratio same:

4:3 × 5 = 20:15

4:5 × 3 = 12:15

Now, <em>we find the units of the ratio</em>.

<em>The ratio of boys dropped down by 160</em>:

20 - 12 = 8 units.

160 = 8 units

Now, dividing both sides by 8 we get:

20 = 1 unit

So, 1 unit = 20.

Now, girls = 15 units

So, 15 × 20 = 300.

Therefore, 300 girls were there in the gym.
