The ratio of boys to girl in a school is 5:7 if there are 600 students, how many girls are there
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

350 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

So,

The secret to solving problems with ratios is to find the value of one unit.

5:7 = 12 units total

To find one unit, divide the total number of students by the total number of units.

600/12 = a

Simplify

50/1 = a

50 = a

The value of each unit is 50.

Now, multiply the units by the numbers in the ratio.

50(5) = b

250 = boys

50(7) = x

350 = x

There are 350 girls.

M%=0.2647*100
M%=26.5 (rounded)

Thus, there was a 26.5% decrease.
