So we start off by subtracting 137.3 from 180 getting 42.5. If you add the ratios up (3+4) you get 7 and 7 should equal 42.5. thus,
42.5/7= 85/14
(85/14)*3=18.2 or (255/14 to be exact)
(85/14)*4= 24.29 or (170/7 to be exact)
Answer:
250 boys
Step-by-step explanation:
sum the parts of the ratio, 5 + 3 = 8 parts
Divide the total by 8 to find the value of 1 part of the ratio
400 ÷ 8 = 50 , then
number of boys = 5 × 50 = 250
Answer:
x+2y=- 7
x-2y =9
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving Steps
2x+4y=-14
x-2y=9
Divide both sides
(2x+4y) ÷2=-14=2
{x-2y=9
Remove the parentheses
Divide
2x÷2+4y÷2=-7
x-2y =9
Divide
Solution
x+2y=- 7
x-2y =9
