Question

In a class of 32 the ratio of number of boys to the number of girls in 5/3 Determine how many boys are there in the class.​

Answer 1

Answer:

I bilieve the answer is 20/12, 20 boys, and 12 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

5/3 is the ratio, but the number is bigger than this,

To solve this, what you multiply to one side, also needs to be multiplied to the other, because the ratio must be even. And i multiplied up one more until i got the total of 32(The total number of students).

4*5/4*3=20/12

add these together and you get a total of 32.

Thus there are 20 boys in the class.

I hope that this answer was helpful to you, and anyone else who uses it. Have a good day.
