Answer:
The number of boys are 18 and the number of girls are 30.
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of number of girls to the boys = 3 : 5
Let the number of girls is g and boys is b initially.
b : g = 3 : 5
5 b = 3 g ..... (1)
Now, girls are 6 + g and boys are b - 9
So, the ratio is
(b - 9) : (6 + g) = 1 : 4
4 b - 36 = 6 + g
4 b - g = 42 .... (2)
From ( 1 ) and ( 2 )
And , g = 5 x 18/3 = 30
So, the number of boys are 18 and the number of girls are 30.
Given:
He does mistake in the order of giving preference.
We should give preference in the order, division, multiplication, addition, subtraction.
But, he gave the first preferrence to the subtraction.
72-8=64
Next, he used division
64/2=32
Next he adds 32 with 8.
So, he gets 50.
But the actual simplification is,
Simplifying we get,
Hence, the correct value of the expression is 86.
12 songs. 25% of 12 is 3, so you add 3 to 12 and get 15. You then find that 20% of 15 is 3 so you subtract 3 from 15 and get 12 again.
First expand the parentheses:-
96x + 18 - 6 + 8x + 25 = 0
104x = -18 + 6 - 25 = -37
x = -37 / 104 = -0.3558
Answer:
x = 45
Step-by-step explanation:
Re-order terms so constants are on the left
15 * x/9 - 42 =28
Combine multiplied terms into a single fraction
15x/9 - 42 = 28
Cancel terms that are in both the numerator and denominator
5x/3 - 42 = 28
