<span>With a boys to girls ratio of 8:7, this means 8/15 of the campers are boys and 7/15 of the campers are girls.
We are told that there are 195 total campers.
To find # of boys: 195 (the total # of campers) x 8/15 (fraction of the campers that are boys) = 104 boys
To find # of girls: 195 (total # of campers) x 7/15 (fraction of the campers that are girls) = 91 girls
Note: If you do not know how to multiply by fractions, let me know, I have another trick that takes more time but doesn't require the use of fractions.

Well, that's incorrect because according to the Order of Operation [GEMS\BOMDAS\PEMDAS etc.], that -7 has to be distributed amongst all the other terms in parentheses. Besides, you did the wrong operation when you inserted that subtraction symbol in substitution of the parentheses, which means to MULTIPLY. So, the order goes as follows:
12 - 7[72]
-504 + 12 = -492 [OR 12 - 504]
-492 is your answer. You get it now?
Answer:
1, -5/2, 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly start off with finding the lowest common multiple of 14 and 24. The LCM would be 168. Then you would look at your powers, here you have to choose the highest power of each letter. So 14x^4 and 24x^6 the highest is x^6, then for y it would be y^6 and then for z it would be z^8. So altogether your answer would be 168x^6y^6z^8
