The answer is 160. There are 160 boys in the school. Take 360 divide by 9, then multiply by four.
So if boys is 6 and girls is 15 it would be 6/15, but that can be simplified to 2/5.
I agree with the 14x all right, but the remainder of the other part is 178. I'm going to recheck my answer. I'm not confident about using synthetic division for this question. It is 57 years since I did something like this. If I was more confident, I would list the results of synthetic division because it is much easier to show than long division. I'm saying the answer should be 14x + 178.
Answer:
£13496.80
Step-by-step explanation:
We can ignore the £ sign for now, that is just units.
If we decrease a number by 4.5%, we will have to find 
% of 14132.77.
We can easily do this by setting up a proportion.
Multiply 14132.77 by 95.5:
Divide by 100:
Rounding this to two decimal places, it simplifies to 13496.80.
Hope this helped!
