{Hello,\;There!}

They already give you the number of boys {14}, so all you need to do is subtract 30 - 14 which will give you the ratio of girls.

It does this because 14 takes up \frac{14}{30} of the seventh grade class.

\text{30 - 14 = 16}

  So your answer is going to be 14:16 un-simplified.

  However, since they ask you to put it in the simplest terms, we are going to simplify \frac{14}{16}.

  You can do this by dividing both numbers by 2.

=  \frac{14 \div 2}{16 \div 2}=\frac{7}{8}

\bold{So\;your\;answer\;is\;going\;to\;be}

= \frac{7}{8} or \text{7:8}

\rule{300}{1.0}

A car is traveling 150 feet per second. Convert this to miles per hour.
Nana76 [90]

There are 3600 seconds in 1 hour.

Multiply feet per second by 3600 to get feet in 1 hour:

150 x 3600 = 540,000 feet in 1 hour.

1 mile = 5280 feet.

Divide feet per hour by 5280 to get miles per hour:

540,000 / 5280 = 102.27 miles per hour.
