Colfax:
Add the ratio numbers together:
5 + 4 = 9
Divide total students by that:
270 / 9 = 30
Multiply each ratio by 30:
Boys = 30 *5 = 150
Girls = 30 * 4 = 120
Do the same for Winthrop:
4 +5 = 9
180 /9 = 20
Boys = 20 * 4 = 80
Girls = 20 * 5 = 100
Total students = 270 + 180 = 450
Total Girls = 120 + 100 = 220
Fraction that are girls = 220 / 450 which reduces to 22/45
What do you need help clarifying? Did you want to go over the questions you missed? (:
Whatever% of anything is just (whatever/100) * anything.
thus 29.5% of something, is just (29.5/100) * something, and the decimal form of 29.5% is just 29.5/100 or the quotient of 29.5÷100.
