Answer:
10 boys, 15 girls
Step-by-step explanation:
Original ratio: 2 boys/3 girls
let x be the scale factor of the ratio
2x plus 5 boys over 3x girls = 1 (because the # of boys/girls are the same)-------> 2x+5/3x = 1
Simplify: 2x+5=3x
Simplify: 5=x
plug x back into the original ratio: 10/15
Check: 10/15 = 2/3
10 boys + 5 boys = 15, 15/15 = 1

1000cm
Step-by-step explanation:
there are 100cm in a meter. so we multiply 10 by 100 to get the amount of centimeters in 10 meters which is 1000cm
4a-2=a+4
+2 to both sides
4a=a+6
-a from both sides
3a=6
