Given:
Total number of students at Colfax Middle School = 270
Ratio of boys to girls is 5:4.
Total number of students at Winthrop Middle School = 180
Ratio of boys to girls is 4:5.
The two schools hold a dance and all students from both schools attend.
To find:
The fraction of the students at the dance are girls
Solution:
There are 270 students at Colfax Middle School, where the ratio of boys to girls is 5:4.

Number of boys 
Number of girls 
There are 180 students at Winthrop Middle School, where the ratio of boys to girls is 4:5.

Number of boys 
Number of girls 
Now,
Total number of students in both schools 

Total number of girls in both schools 

The fraction of the students at the dance are girls is



Therefore, the required fraction is
.
Mean is the average
So the first mean is 11
The second one is 14.7 so round to 15
15-11 is 4. Hope that is correct

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The volume of water and air inside each of the plastic ice cubes is 3000mm³
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem bothers on the mensuration of solid shapes, rectangular pyramid.
The volume of a rectangular pyramid is expressed as
V=(l*w*h)/3
Given data
Length l = 20mm
Width w= 15mm
Height h= 30mm
Substituting our given data we have
V= 20*15*30/3
V= 9000/3
V= 3000mm³
Answer:
Always
Step-by-step explanation:
The definition of a perpendicular line is that it intersects another at a 90 degree angle. Using this, by verticals, the opposite corner angle must also be 90-degrees, and since one side of a line is 180 degrees, 180-90 = 90, which ensure the rest of the angles will be 90 degrees too.
