The unknown is how many girls and boys are in the class.
Answer:
The answer in the simplest form would be 28/9 or 3 1/9
Step-by-step explanation:
Very simple you would divide the 56 and the 18 by 2 and you get 28/9.
or you could change it to a improper fraction in that case it would be 3 1/9
The series converges, and its sum is 1/2.
If r > 1, the series is divergent. If r < 1, the series is convergent. In our sequence, r, the common ratio we multiply by to get the next term, is 7/9; therefore it is convergent.
To find the sum of a convergent series, we use the formula
a/(1-r), where a is the first term and r is the common ratio. We then have
1/9÷(1-7/9) = 1/9÷2/9 = 1/9×9/2 = 1/2
