Answer:

24 boys

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve this using simultaneous equations.

You know the number of boys plus the number of girls is 52, so b + g = 52.

You also know the number of boys is 6/7 the number of girls, so b = 6/7g

Then you can substitute this into the first equation - 6/7g + g = 52, so 13/7g = 52.

Solving that equation, 52 / 13/7 = 28, so there are 28 girls.

You then work out the number of boys by doing 52- the number of girls, so 52- 28 = 24 boys

Hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions :)

Can someone help me with questions 2 and 3 pls?

1 cup = 1/2 pint, so where it says 4 cups we'll just read 2 pints.

1.  In one show we serve 30 × 2 pints of small and 42 × 6 pints of regular.

Total = 30 × 2 + 42 × 6 =  60 + 252 = 312 pints

Answer: 312 pints

2. 8 pints per gallon, 2 gallons per container makes 16 pints per container.  

312 pints / 16 pints per container = 19.5 containers

We round up since we need a whole number of containers.

Answer: 20 containers

We can't really see question 3.
