Well the first thing you need to do is set up a proportion.
8 girls 56 girls
-------- = -----------
7 boys x
Now what we have to do is find out what we multiplied by 8 to get 56.
Simply divide.
56 ÷ 8 = 7
So, we figured out that the magic number is 7!
So we multiply the boy number by 7
7 x 7 = 49
So this means that there are 49 boys on the field trip.

Answer:
1. Explain what a medical sociologist means by "health and illness are social attributes influenced by social factors"
Answer:
9 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
Since both pools are similar, therefore the ratio of their length and width would be equal. That is:
Length of the current swimming pool : length of the new swimming pool = width of the current swimming pool : width of the new swimming pool
Thus, we can set up a proportion as shown below:
Let the width of the new swimming pool be x.
40 : 24 = 15 : x
Cross multiply
Divide both sides by 40
The width of the new swimming that is smaller would be 9 yards.
