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.
