Answer:
88
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's see - if there are 3/5 girls, there must be 2/5 boys. Assuming everyone in the class is binary, of course.
So 2/5 of 220 is the number of boys. When you see "of," always think multiplication!
2/5 of 220
2/5 * 220 = 88 boys in 7th grade
Answer:
20 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
The living room is made up of white trim and blue surface area between the walls. Since the ratio of the blue surface area between the walls to the white trim is given by 1 : 10.
Also 2 gallons of blue paints are used for the walls, let x represent the number of white paint used in gallons. Hence:
number of white paint in gallons = [1 / (1 + 10)] * total number of paints = 1 / 11 * total number of paints
2 = 1/11 * total number of paints used
total number of paints = 22 gallons
number of white paint (x) = [10 / (1 + 10)] * total number of paints = 1 / 11 * total number of paints
x = 10/11 * 22
x = 20 gallons
Therefore 20 gallons of white paint was used
