Answer: 172 boys.

Step-by-step explanation: The ratio of boys to girls is 4:5. We can say that the number of boys in the class is four multiplied by the common value that the ratio is based on. We can call this common value x and say that the number of boys in the class is 4x. Applying the same logic to the girls, we can say that there are 5x girls in the class. Thus, a total of 9x children. We divide the total value by 9 to get x, which equals 43. We can then retrieve the number of boys by calculating 4x, which equals 172.

EastWind [94]

Answer: estimate 7

exact: 6 7/15

Step-by-step explanation: for the estimate round 3 4/5 to 4 and 2 2/3 to 3 and 4 + 3 = 7

for the exact number convert 3 4/5 to 3 12/15

and convert 2 2/3 to 2 10 /15

then add 3 + 2 = 5

and 12/15 + 10/15 = 22/15

convert 22/15 to a mixed number which is 1 7/15

then 5 + 1 7/15

answer 6 7/15
