Answer:

24 boys & 20 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

Last year:

Number of boys = x

Total number = 45

Number of girls = 45 - x

An increase of 20% is the same as multiplying by 1.2

A decrease of 10% is the same as multiplying by 0.8

This year:

New number of boys: 1.2x

New number of girls: 0.8(45 - x)

New total number = 45 - 1 = 44

1.2x + 0.8(45 - x) = 44

1.2x + 36 - 0.8x = 44

0.4x + 36 = 44

0.4x = 8

x = 20

Last year there were 20 boys and 25 girls.

This year there are 20 * 1.2 = 24 boys

and 44 - 24 = 20 girls

Answer: 24 boys & 20 girls

What are some prime numbers to create a product of four
Alex_Xolod [135]
Since a product in maths means the result after multiplying numbers, you need to multiply 2 prime numbers and get 4.

If we look at the prime numbers: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, etc, we see that the only number we can multiply to get 4 is 2, or, in other words, the only multiplication of prime numbers we can do to get four is 2*2=4.

Answer:

About 8595 students

Step-by-step explanation:

If approximately 9/20 of the students are male, multiplying this by the total number of students enrolled will give a good approximation of the total number of enrolled males. 9/20 * 19100=8595. Hope this helps!
