We know that there are 16 girls. That is the first part of the ratio. Now, it says girls to students, which mean you have to add up the total of girls and boys together. 12+16=28. There are 28 students in total. Now, you have the ratio of 16:28. But, it says simplified...so we need to divide both sides of the ratio by a number. Let's choose 4 because 4 can go both into 16 and 28. 16/4=4. 28/4=7. So, the simplified ratio of girls to students in the classroom is 4:7.
Hope this helped!
I see the picture but its really bad so 5.-2
Its just now (m + n) so it would be *4 since *2 + *2
Answer:
4 hrs
Step-by-step explanation:
half of Jim Rollers time is 1.5 hrs, and half of John Brushs time is 2.5 hrs. The two combined is 4 hrs. Therefore, the answer is four hours.
This is basically finding the average of two numbers, and you can use multiple different equations to find the same answer.
3/2 + 5/2 =4
(3+5)/2 =4
5-3=2, then 2/2=1, 5-1=4
