The ratio of boys to girls at the beach cleanup was 7.8. If there are 42 boys how many girls are there?

2 answers:

8 0

If the ratio is 7:8, and the number of boys is 42, you would do 42 divided by 7, which equals 6. Then you do 8 times 6, and that's equal to 48. So the ratio is 42:48, with an amount of 48 girls.

OLEGan [10]

It is given in the question that

A farmer owns about 960 acres of land. If his farm is square.

First we convert acres to miles square, and the conversion expression is

$1 acre=0.0015625 mi^2$

Therefore,

$960acres=960*0.0015625=1.5 mi^2$

Let the side length of the square be x miles .

And the formula of area of square is

$Area=side^2
\\
1.5=side^2
\\
side= \sqrt{1.5}=1.2 miles$
