Answer:

I believe that the answer is 26

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of girls to boys is 13 to 8 so there are 13 girls for every 8 boys so if there are 16 boys (8X2) then there are 26 girls (13X2)

How to reduce into simpler terms.?

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

The simplest form of the fraction $\frac{45}{100}$ is $\frac{9}{20}$ .

i.e.

$\frac{45}{100}=\frac{9}{20}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Here are some simple observations regarding how to reduce a fraction into simpler terms:

A fraction is reduced to lowest or simplest terms by finding an equivalent fraction in which the numerator and denominator are as small as possible.

In order to reduce a fraction to lowest or simplest terms, divide the numerator and denominator by their (GCF). Note that (GCF) is also called Greatest Common Factor .

So, lets take a sample fraction and reduce into simpler terms.

Considering the fraction

$\frac{45}{100}$

$\mathrm{Find\:a\:common\:factor\:of\:}45\mathrm{\:and\:}100\mathrm{\:in\:order\:to\:cancel\:it\:out}$

$\mathrm{Greatest\:Common\:Divisor\:of\:}45,\:100:\quad 5$

$\mathrm{Factor\:out\:}5\mathrm{\:from\:the\:numerator\:and\:the\:denominator}$

$45=5\cdot \:9\mathrm{,\:\quad }100=5\cdot \:20$

$\frac{45}{100}=\frac{5\cdot \:\:9}{5\cdot \:\:20}$

$\mathrm{Cancel\:the\:common\:factor:}\:5$

$=\frac{9}{20}$

Therefore, the simplest form of the fraction $\frac{45}{100}$ is $\frac{9}{20}$ .

i.e.

$\frac{45}{100}=\frac{9}{20}$

Find k given that these three points are collinear.<br> A(0, -2), B(2, 0), and C(5, k)

goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

k = 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

If they are collinear the slope of AB = the slope of BC, so :-

(0- (-2)) / (2 - 0) = (k - 0) / (5 - 2)

2/2 = k/3

1 = k/3

k = 3.
