<h3>
Answer = 3:1</h3>
==========================================
Work Shown
45 girls : 15 boys
45/15 girls : 15/15 boys .... divide both parts by 15
3 girls : 1 boy
This tells us there are three times as many girls as there are boys.
We write this as the ratio 3 : 1. The order of the terms is important. We cannot say 1:3 since that would imply there are more boys than girls, but it's the other way around.
Answer:
A= 30
Step-by-step explanation:
This requires several steps.
First, you need to find the 2 other missing angles.
One can be found easily by substracting 130 from 180
so 180-130 = 50
The other angle is the same as 8x+4
Now set up your equation
180=3x-6 + 8x+4 +50
180 = 3x + 8x -6 + 4 +50
180+6-4-50 = 11x
132 = 11x
132/11 = x
12 = x
Now plug in 12 for x in your angle A
A=3x-6
A=3 * 12 - 6
A=36 - 6
A= 30
Answer:
Number of cats is (5/9)(63) = 35, and number of dogs is (4/9)(63) = 28
Step-by-step explanation:
The given ratio is 5 to 4. Sum these up, obtaining 9. Then (5/9) of the whole represents the number of cats, and (4/9) of the whole represents the number of dogs.
Number of cats is (5/9)(63) = 35, and
number of dogs is (4/9)(63) = 28
As a check: 35 + 28 = 63.
