Answer:
Girls = 16
Total students = 40
Step-by-step explanation:
40% of the students are girls, this means 60% of the students are boys.
To find the number of girls, setup a proportion using the percentages and actual number of students in the class. I am going to make the numerator the numbers that go with the girls and the denominator will be the numbers that go with the boys.
Also let's convert the percentages to decimals by moving the decimal two places left.
40% = 0.4 and 60% = 0.6
Now let's find the total number of students by adding the number of girls to the number of boys.
16 + 24 = 40
Answer: 2/3 is the simplest form
I don't know if this is right, but I'm pretty sure it's B.

Answer:
m∠K = 37° and n = 31
Step-by-step explanation:
A lot of math is about matching patterns. Here, the two patterns we want to match are different versions of the same Law of Cosines relation:
- a² = b² +c² -2bc·cos(A)
- k² = 31² +53² -2·31·53·cos(37°)
<h3>Comparison</h3>
Comparing the two equations, we note these correspondences:
Comparing these values to the given information, we see that ...
- KN = c = 53 . . . . . . . . . . matching values 53
- NM = a = k . . . . . . . . . . . matching values k
- KM = b = n = 31 . . . . . . . matching values 31
- ∠K = ∠A = 37° . . . . . . . matching side/angle names
Abby apparently knew that ∠K = 37° and n = 31.

<em>Additional comment</em>
Side and angle naming for the Law of Sines and the Law of Cosines are as follows. The vertices of the triangle are labeled with single upper-case letters. The side opposite is labeled with the same lower-case letter, or with the two vertices at either end.
Vertex and angle K are opposite side k, also called side NM in this triangle.
