You have to be very careful how you set this up. For every girl (who counts as 1) there are 3 boys (who count as 3). The total number in the proportion is 3 + 1 =4. You are given a total, but that is both boys and girls. That's why you need the 4.
3/4 = x / 236 Cross multiply
4x = 3 * 236
4x = 708 Divide by 4
x = 708/4
x = 177
There are 177 boys at the school and 236 - 177 = 59 girls.

Explanation:
Two lines are parallel if they share the same slope.
Any line parallel to
y
=
10
x
will have the slope 10.
Now, we have:

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1. 30 minutes
2. 15 minutes
3. 30 minutes
4. 60 minutes/ 1 hour
5. 45 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 60 - 45 = 15
15+15 = 30
2. 30 - 15 = 15
3. 45 - 15 = 30
4. 60 - 30 = 30
30 + 30 = 60
5. 60 - 15 = 45
