Answer:

16 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

boys : girls : total

5          4        5+4 = 9

take the total number of people and divide by 9

36/9 = 4

Each number should be multiplied by 4

boys : girls : total

5*4        4*4     9*4

20          16        36

There are 16 girls

Ibrahim wants to give each of his six friends 1 2/3 candy bars. How many candy bars does he need to buy?
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

10 candy bars

Step-by-step explanation:

Since each of his friends needs a candy bar, you need to multiply 6 and 1 ⅔ together.

First, convert 1 ⅔ into an improper fraction: this gives us ⁵⁄₃.

Next, multiply ⁶⁄₁ and ⁵⁄₃ together. To do this, you can visualize 6 as ⁶⁄₁ (which is the same thing). Now you have ⁶⁄₁ x ⁵⁄₃.

<u>Simplify:</u>

The 6 in the numerator and the 3 in the denominator cancel out. This gives us ²⁄₁ x ⁵⁄₁ , which is 2 x 5.

2 x 5 = 10
