Answer:  17/40 of the students are girls.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, to find the number of girls in the class, we can subtract the number of boys (23) from the total number of students (40) to get:

40 - 23 = 17

There are 17 girls in the class.

Finally, to get the fraction of the girl students of the class, we can divide the number of girls (17) by the total number of students (40) to get:

17 ÷ 40 = \frac{17}{40}

Since the fraction \frac{17}{40} is already simplified, the final answer comes out to be \frac{17}{40}.

Lapatulllka [165]
Let us determine each of their rates of work:

Since Tiana can clear the field in 3 hours, meaning she can do 1/3 of the work per hour.

In the same way, Jacob can do 1/2 of the work per hour. 

Now, what would be the rate of work if they were working together? Let's look at it like this:

Hours to complete the job:
Tiana = 3
Jacob = 2
Together = t

Work done per hour:
Tiana = 1/3
Jacob = 1/2
Together = 1/t

If you add their labor together:

1/3 + 1/2 = 1/t
5/6 = 1/t
t = 6/2 = 1.2

Together, they can clear the field in 1.2 hours.
